Valverde: "It was a great match from the entire team"
“We did a spectacular job both defensively and offensively,” said the scorer of Real Madrid's third goal.
Fede Valverde scored the third goal for Real Madrid with a perfect right-footed strike. After the match, the captain stated: “We are happy with the victory and the team's effort. I think we did a spectacular job defensively and also offensively. We had many chances and lacked finishing on some goals. It’s true that they had a few chances as well, but Courtois was tremendous. It was a great match from the entire team.”
Match Plan
“We tried to stay compact when defending. We knew they were a team that moves the ball very well, moves a lot between our midfield, and we had to stay tight with the forwards. We did well, everyone worked, and it showed that we defended throughout the match. Then we attacked very well.”
His stunning goal
“Training, working with the coaching staff, who are always with us, supporting us after training sessions to keep shooting, keep improving, and refining what we love, which is shooting on goal and scoring. The important thing is that it went in. As I always say, that is secondary. The primary goal is to win, for the team to secure the three points, and to keep that momentum.”
