Carlo Ancelotti survives his first Bayern beer shower as Philipp Lahm gets his sendoff
All the best bits from Bayern’s Bundesliga victory celebration
(FC Bayern)
A 4–1 win over Freiburg finished off Bayern Munich’s fifth consecutive Bundesliga title and both Philipp Lahm and Xabi Alonso’s career. It also marked the long overdue end of Carlo Ancelotti’s beer-bath virginity.
@MrAncelotti @philipplahm @XabiAlonso .@MrAncelotti: “Me first Weißbier shower was very cold, but it was a lot of fun!” #FCBSCF
Also, David Alaba gave Arjen Robben a new head of hair.
Perfectly timed ?? ? #Mia5anMia
Then Robben passed on the favor.
Cheeky boy, @ArjenRobben ??? #Mia5anMia
Here’s video of the beer tsunami (the GoPro on the glass was an inspired innovation):
Amidst the joy was a bit of sadness as Lahm and Alonso said goodbye
But the casual cool of Ancelotti in lederhosen remains.
Looking good, @MrAncelotti #MiaSanMia https://t.co/4A3H6TgkFn
One final thing you have to see: Manuel Neuer keeping his injured foot elevated while wearing his full kit and waving his hands in the air like he just doesn’t care.
CHAMPIONS! #Mia5anMia
Carlo Ancelotti managed his 1,000th match and all he got was a giant pretzel (and an 8–0 win)
The ultimate payoff for a long and successful career
Bayern’s match against Hamburg on Saturday marked Carlo Ancelotti’s 1,000th as a manager and to celebrate the occasion, the club gave him a big-ass Bavarian pretzel shaped like the №1,000 before kickoff.
I would’ve taken that thing back to the dugout and eaten all of it before halftime, but the magic of Ancelotti’s eyebrow is that it was able to resist the allure of a carb-coma to lead Bayern to an 8–0 win. Yes, 8–0.
After the match, Ancelotti had to admit that the day couldn’t have gotten much better. From Reuters:
“A perfect day, a perfect game,” said Ancelotti. “The team played an outstanding game and I could not be happier.”
“I told my players before the game that I wanted a good match for my anniversary. I never thought it would be that good. I hope we show the same attitude in our next game.”
If Arsenal have any designs on coming back from their 5–1 first-leg deficit to Bayern in the Champions League, they now know that gifts of large pretzels won’t help their cause.
Carlo Ancelotti and his eyebrow bring Oktoberfest to new heights
A day after only managing a 1-1 draw against Cologne, Bayern held their annual Oktoberfest celebration. Though new manager Carlo Ancelotti didn’t appear to match former manager Pep Guardiola’s level of drunkenness, he did bring his own eyebrow-arching flair to the event. And now I think I’m drunk off the sight of Ancelotti looking like a Bavarian farmer.
Carlo Ancelotti holds up lederhosen on his first day at Bayern Munich
After a year away from the game (making cameos in Star Trek films), Carlo Ancelotti was officially unveiled as Bayern Munich’s new manager on Monday. And he was promptly presented with a pair of lederhosen. As a result, I am now counting down the days until Oktoberfest. The thought of him wearing the traditional Bavarian garb is just too much to bear.
Carlo Ancelotti really does have a part in Star Trek Beyond
Back in October, there were rumors that Carlo Ancelotti was set for a cameo role in the next Star Trek film, which was filming in Vancouver — where Ancelotti took up residence after getting sacked by Real Madrid at the end of the 2014/15 season. Though his IMDB page has yet to be updated to reflect this, we now have confirmation from the man himself.
Cristiano Ronaldo misses “big cute bear” Carlo Ancelotti, is open to Barcelona move, might be very high
Scoring a record 11 goals in the Champions League group stage apparently does something to a man. It frees him of any verbal filter he might have, allowing him to say anything he wants, no matter how vain, adorable, or insane it may sound.
Carlo Ancelotti’s eyebrow plays a doctor’s eyebrow in new Star Trek film
Carlo Ancelotti has been enjoying his sabbatical from the game in Vancouver, Canada. He’s been fishing and dining with old friends and now he’s even taking up acting.

Since Carlo Ancelotti delivered Real Madrid’s long awaited 10th Champions League title last season instead of this season, club president Florentino Perez is reportedly itching to sack him now. So after Real Madrid’s final match of the season — a 7-3 win against Getafe that left them just two points shy of Barcelona’s tremendous title winning campaign — Ancelotti revealed his feelings on the matter.
Zlatan Ibrahimovic once told Carlo Ancelotti that he was Jesus
Zlatan Ibrahimovic has made a habit of publicly declaring himself to be God (in multiple languages), but it turns out he proclaims his messiah status behind closed doors, too.
