Ancelotti fired as Real Madrid coach

The Spanish team Real Madrid has fired Carlo Ancelotti, as the team football manager. I think his failure to end the season without a trophy must have aid his sack.



Club president Florentino Perez told a news conference it had "not been an easy decision" before thanking Ancelotti and adding that a new manager would be appointed "next week".

"What did Ancelotti do wrong? I don't know," Perez added. "The demands here at Real Madrid are very high. The affection that the players and the fans have for Carlo is the same as the affection I myself have for him."
