But comparisons didn’t take long to emerge. Many claim to have discovered a striking resemblance to the Vice President of the USA, Mike Pence:
SPORTbible even showed on Twitter how strange it would look if the virtual face met the real football:

Carlo Ancelotti, coach of Everton FC, has received a new face in FIFA 21. The problem: it looks terrible and bears little resemblance to the famous Italian.
In the latest FIFA titles, many coaches on the sidelines, alongside the best players on the pitch, have also received real game faces. A decision by EA to enhance authenticity and the stadium atmosphere.
And many coaches do not look bad. Although the face scans of the players have noticeably better quality, one can easily recognize coaches like Jürgen Klopp, Zinedine Zidane, Pep Guardiola or Jose Mourinho.
But what on earth has happened to Carlo Ancelotti in FIFA 21?
This is what Carlo Ancelotti looks like in FIFA 21: The new face is currently found everywhere online and is causing quite a stir. Here you can see for yourself the new appearance of the Everton coach:
The difference to the real Ancelotti is huge. The in-game coach seems to have gained a noticeable amount of weight compared to his real-life counterpart. And where has his neck gone?
Indeed, the new, grim look of Carlo Ancelotti in FIFA 21 is certainly not flattering.
The new face of Ancelotti becomes a meme among FIFA fans
This is how the community reacts: After the FIFA community discovered the new in-game face, there was no stopping it. There were numerous comments and jokes made. Especially on reddit, the discussion about the new look is extensive.
Here are a few excerpts:

- 296032501605: “At least they got the eyebrows right”
- LaLigaDan: “Did he trade his neck for a good start to the season with Everton?”
