UEFA Champions League Tournament - Young coaches can learn a lot from Ancelotti, says Terzic.

In the upcoming Champions League final between Borussia Dortmund and Real Madrid, it's not just a battle on the field but also a clash of generations when it comes to coaches. Borussia Dortmund's head coach, Edin Terzic, shows immense respect for Real Madrid's record-holder, Carlo Ancelotti, the most successful coach in the competition with four titles.

Terzic, who is just 41, has only led BVB for three years and this is his first Champions League final as a coach. He raved about Ancelotti, "I have the utmost admiration for him." Ancelotti is not just a coach with a winning streak, but has led teams from various countries and cultures to successes over two decades. Terzic concluded, "Every young coach should look up to him."

Ancelotti himself, a man who has two titles from AC Milan (2003, 2007) and two with the Merengues (2014, 2022), had a surprising note. "You feel the pressure when you reach the finals. The stakes are high and the line between success and failure is thin," said the 64-year-old, someone who also won the European Cup as a player twice. He continued, "This isn't my first time, but I hope it's not my last time."
