MUNICH — Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti has apologized upon his return to Bayern Munich for not remembering his German. The Italian coach says "Ich habe vergessen Deutsch," meaning "I have forgotten German" in his only words in German on Monday before the teams meet on Tuesday for the first leg of their Champions League semifinal.

Ancelotti says he has only fond memories of his time in Munich.
