Carlo Ancelotti has claimed his AC Milan side in 2005 played the best out of all the teams he has managed in a Champions League final, despite that being the only time he has finished as a runner-up in the competition.
The 62-year-old has won three of the four finals he has been in the dugout for - two with AC Milan and one during his first spell at Real Madrid.
However, he was on the wrong end of a dramatic comeback by Liverpool 17 years ago, and he believes that match highlights how luck can play a major role on the biggest stage, as he prepares to take charge of his fifth final, once more against the Reds, on Saturday.
