"We felt good out there"

Cristina Monge (Frankfurt) / Translation by Matthew Goltz

Although they were all pleased with the team's performance on Tuesday, Heinze, Van der Vaart and Metzelder are now only thinking about next Sunday's Super Cup against Valencia.

HEINZE:
“We felt good out there. It's almost as if we earned a point, but Real Madrid must win no matter where it plays. This match will serve to learn from the mistakes made. We cannot allow the same mistakes against Valencia. We must score next Sunday and win.”

VAN DER VAART:
“I am very happy with the way things are going for me in Madrid. This was not a friendly for either side because both have official matches coming up and the players want to make statements to their coaches. Madrid was the better team, but their keeper prevented us from winning.”

METZELDER:
“I felt good for having only trained for two weeks. The second half was better. Our goal is still the Champions League, but we know how important the league is.”

“Playing in Germany is always special for me.”

“Ramos and Casillas don't tease me about Spain's triumph. They deserved it, but in two year's we are going after the World Cup. We still have a few days to prepare the Super Cup against Valencia, which all of us hope to win.”
