2024 has been a very successful year for Real Madrid, as they took home five different trophies: Spanish Super Cup, La Liga, Champions League, UEFA Super Cup and Intercontinental Cup. They end it on Sunday with the match against Sevilla, and a win would see them could see them leapfrog Barcelona and Atletico Madrid, provided that they draw in their meeting on Saturday.
As per [Diario AS](https://as.com/futbol/primera/rueda-de-prensa-de-ancelotti-previa-al-sevilla-en-directo-n/), Ancelotti took the opportunity to reflect on Real Madrid’s 2024 during his pre-match press conference.
“It was the happiest year… there are many good moments. It has been a fantastic year, maybe unrepeatable. We will try to do it again, because this squad has a very high level. Maybe the Champions League has been the happiest, it always is.
“The saddest… I don’t know, because we haven’t lost much this year. Barcelona’s 0-4, perhaps. I ask Santa Claus that there be no more criticism in 2025. But it’s something normal, I already said it.”
It has been a very good year for [Real Madrid](https://www.football-espana.net/category/la-liga/real-madrid), and replicating it in 2025 will be very tough. However, they are more than capable of doing it.
