two Madridstas. The Bayern gaffer who managed the two while with Madrid is intrigued at how both players will fight for their countries during a chat with telegraph. "I have seen these two boys sweating over an eight-a-side game many times during my two years at Madrid. All the great players are competitors," Ancelotti said.
"They all want to come out on top even when the only thing at stake is to be able to walk into the training-ground canteen as the winner.
" So when it comes to the game in Lyon, just think what it will mean to these two lads to do it for their countries."
"Gareth always told me that Euro 2016 was a big tournament for Wales," the Italian continued.
" That if they could qualify then who knows what could happen?"
Ancelotti said Portugal were lucky to have not just a talented player in Ronaldo, but a fierce leader as well - qualities which the Italian felt the attacker showed during his country's penalty shoot-out win against Poland.
" I saw the penalty shoot-outs between Portugal and Poland and then Germany and Italy. You could see how Cristiano took the lead by scoring the first penalty,"
"For this semi-final, it is clear to me that Portugal have the better players – Cristiano, Nani, Renato Sanches, Joao Moutinho," "Wales have Gareth but they are without Aaron Ramsey. Wales have a strong team though, and that can carry you through a lot of difficult moments." A lot will rest on Gareth inspiring his team-mates, but when he says that he believes in them all, you know that he is telling the truth. Crediting Portugal the better team on paper.
