Real Madrid aim to defy power-shift and assert themselves in Europe againCarlo Ancelotti's Real Madrid begin their Champions League campaign on Wednesday away at Inter Milan. MADRID: After winning the Champions League three years in a row, Real Madrid have gone three years without getting close, the task now belonging to Carlo Ancelotti to put the club back where they believe they belong. Four successes in that half-decade, and three in a row, established Real Madrid at the pinnacle of Europe, even if Barcelona continued to reign supreme in Spain. And if Ancelotti can revive the injury-ridden Eden Hazard, Madrid might have the best new signing of the lot. "But the idea is always the same for Real Madrid: attacking, spectacular football because that is what the history of this club demands and the fans want."
