Real Madrid midfielder Federico Valverde appeared in a press statement following the 4-1 victory over Sociedad in the 24th round of the Spanish League, in the match held at Santiago Bernabéu Stadium.

The player said: "We are happy with the win and the team's efforts. I believe we delivered an amazing performance both defensively and offensively. We had many opportunities, but we lacked the final touch. It's true they had chances as well, but Courtois was outstanding. It was a great match from the entire team."

He added about the game plan: "We tried to maintain our defensive cohesion. We knew they were a team that excelled at passing the ball and moved a lot through our midfield, so we had to stay close to their attackers. We did that well, we all worked hard, and it was evident in our defense throughout the match. Then we attacked excellently."

Regarding his goal: "The secret lies in training and working with the coaching staff who are always with us after practice sessions. They help us continue shooting, constantly improve, and refine what we love, which is shooting at the goal and scoring. The important thing is that the ball went into the net. As I always say, this is secondary... the most important thing is winning, for the team to earn the three points and maintain this momentum."

Regarding the Champions League match against Benfica: "We have worked hard for these upcoming matches and the rest of the season in the Champions League. We have gone through long weeks of preparation. Now it's time to show what we can do and fight for what we really want, which is the Spanish League and the Champions League."
