CARLO ANCELOTTI has joined legendary Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson to have the most Champions League wins as a manager.
The Italian, 63, has won Europe’s top club competition four times – which is a record in itself.
But after Champions League holders Real Madrid beat Celtic 5-1 at the Bernabeu, Ancelotti reached another impressive milestone.
He has equalled legendary United boss Ferguson, who has won the Champions League twice, to hold the most wins as a manager in the competition.
The win over Celtic pushed Ancelotti onto 102 wins as a manager, matching Ferguson with five games less managed.
Ferguson’s last Champions League win came on November 7, 2012 with a 3-1 away win over Braga.

Whether Ancelotti holds onto the record for a long period of time is yet to be seen.
