'I’m proud to be part of this winning team', said Courtois.
After the game against Al Ain, where Real Madrid were crowned world champions, Modric spoke to the press: “It's an important title, this will give us confidence for moving forward. We wanted to end 2018 in the best possible way and we did it. We were focussed from the first minute, and we’re relieved to have won our third consecutive Club World Cup. I feel great playing in this competition”.
'It's an unforgettable year for me, it's been perfect. We won the Champions League, with Croatia I had a great World Cup and now I’ve won another title with Real Madrid. This year is a dream, I couldn’t ask for more'.
Goal
'Karim passed it to me, I controlled it and decided to shoot. Last year I couldn’t score and this year I managed to get the first goal. Hopefully more will come in the future. I like to set up my teammates. The important thing is to give everything and help the team in other aspects of the game'.
Courtois: “I'm proud to be part of this team”
“We played well and got the win. I'm proud to be part of this winning team. We played well in both of these Club World Cup games and I hope this will set us up well to do perform in the Copa del Rey, LaLiga and the Champions League'.
'I don’t think we're playing poorly, we've kept a lot of clean sheets, hopefully we can continue working well, picking up wins and making up ground'.
Keylor Navas
'I’ve got a lot of respect for him. He’s won three Champions Leagues in a row with Real Madrid. This is the level of competition that there is at this club. It's not good to be on the bench but he’s working well, we both train hard. It is always good to play and it’s the coach who decides who plays. I felt good since the first day. I try to help the team and work every day to improve'.
Isco
'He’s a great player. We’re a complete team with a lot of good players and it’s not easy for the coach to choose who plays'.
Odriozola: 'We want to win more'
'This title tastes of victory, you dream of winning titles, coming here and winning them with Real Madrid is very nice, we want to win more, another piece of history has been written today with these players and I’m proud to be a part of it'.
'Real Madrid are obliged to win everything, the way to do so is to work hard every day, we do it in training and giving our best all the time, the quality in the team is unquestionable. You remember family and the people who support you the most in bad times'.
Reguilón: 'An unforgettable experience'
'I've dreamed of winning this trophy, it's big title in football and having it in the trophy cabinet is amazing, belonging to this group is the best thing that can happen to a football player. Being a part of this is an unforgettable experience. You remember those who were there on the first day like my father, who has worked with me to be here, now we have to enjoy it and celebrate it'.
