It was a great match. They also came in good shape and it was also a good match for the spectators . But Madrid always accepts that, so I am very happy.”

He added: “Obviously we came with confidence, but Real Madrid is here to play this type of match, we won.” We showed that.”

He stressed: “The penalty kick in the last second bothered us, but we ended the match with a win, which is the important thing. This team has a lot to offer and we will offer more.”

He continued: “ We are worried about Mbappe. I hugged him. We have no idea about his injury. Let's hope it's nothing, just a blow he received."

He added:"We will play one match after another. We want to try to get to 15 pips and then we will see what happens. Now things are going as they should, and we are all keen to do our part to move forward. This is Real Madrid and it is just getting started. Let them speak in the end.”

He concluded: “I was happy with my pass to Mbappe. It is always good to be able to contribute, and as I always say, I am always there to contribute.” The team, through assistance or work, whatever, we have great players, we all did a good job: Bellingham scored a great goal, Vinnie too, Kylian... I think from the back line, from Thibaut, to the attack, we played a good game.”
