Ancelotti Happy With Counter-Attack

[Folami David]

Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti has insisted he is happy for his side to continue with the counter-attacking style they have used to great effect in recent seasons.
.
Madrid's pace and ruthlessness on the break was on full show as they scored five times in the final 35 minutes on their way to a 6-1 hammering of Galatasaray in their Champions League opener.
.
And despite previously suggesting he would like his Real side to have a style more based on possession, Ancelotti acknowledged that he can't ignore the qualities that his players have on the break.
.
"I can't go against the quality of my players, if we find the solution in three passes rather than 30 then we will do it," he told a press conference on Saturday.
.
"We will look for quick attacks, we have players with a lot of quality on the counter-attack."
.
One of those who benefits most from playing on the break is Cristiano Ronaldo and he celebrated the signing of his new contract with the club with his 21st hat-trick for Madrid in midweek
..
And Ancelotti hailed the Portuguese as an example to the rest of the players in the squad.
.
"He is a fantastic professional. He is very focused in the training sessions, even before and after them he works hard to recuperate. He is a very good example for the rest, above all for the young players. He has a lot of quality and is very professional."
