Carvajal: The result does not reflect our superiority, and we must continue to work
Real Madrid achieved a victory over Barcelona 2-1 at the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium, in a match that saw Dani Carvajal reach his 200th win in La Liga.
Carvajal said, referring to the fact that the team deserved a bigger result: "It was a deserved win, and one could say that the result does not fully reflect our superiority. It was a pivotal match against a direct competitor, and we leave with a great feeling and three important points in the standings."
He added: "We delivered an excellent performance without the ball; we knew when to press and when to fall back. The team suffered very little, and we did not give Barcelona real chances to score."
About being a captain in El Clasico: "It is a great honor to be the captain of Real Madrid and to win against Barcelona here at our stadium. But we are realistic; it is just three points. We hope it will be crucial at the end of the season, but we must continue to work."
He concluded: "The atmosphere was amazing. I would like to thank all the fans; they supported us throughout the match and even in the tough moments. Since we arrived by bus, the support was fantastic, and this victory is also dedicated to them."
