Esteban Granero shared his views on tonight's match with the media.
"Every match is difficult. Zaragoza proved they aren't just another team. It took us a while to get into the game, but we did and ended up winnng."
"We don't want it to become a habit of ours to start behind on the scoreboard. Their goal was our fault and we should not make those mistakes. We later managed to combine passes, but we have to watch out to avoid being at a disadvantage."
"We gave an all-round performance, especially in the second half, during which Zaragoza hardly posed a threat. We don't know if Xabi Alonso is injured. He is an important player and I just wish he's alright."
"The crowd has always been grateful. I've been amongst them and I feel proud to be cheered by them. You have to be 100% in shape for whenever you may be needed."
