Ancelotti on trial for alleged tax evasion in Spain

REAL MADRID coach Carlo Ancelotti attended the opening of his trial on tax evasion charges in Spain today.
The highly successful Italian manager spent two-and-a-half hours inside the Madrid-based courthouse before telling reporters “all is well” upon leaving in a car.
