Casilla: "Winning a title at the start of the season gives the group a lot of confidence"

Kiko Casilla spoke to Realmadrid TV in an interview which saw him discuss the Super Cup win over Sevilla and the team's excitement ahead of the new season: “Winning a title at the start of the season gives the group a lot of confidence. We were patient and we created quite a few chances. When I saw Dani start to come inside, I knew he was going to score, and he did just that. It was a stunning goal”.

“One of the mottos at this club is ‘until the end’ and you can see that with Sergio's goal, just like in the match in Lisbon and with Dani's goal as well. Real Madrid is all about not letting your head drop until the referee blows the final whistle, and that's how it was, we kept going until the end. I'm happy with everything, with the Super Cup, with the win, being able to play and win my first title playing from the start. We suffered more than we would've liked but it all turned out well in the end. If you don't usually play, when you do get your chance you try to do the best you can. I was lucky enough to make some saves, and most importantly, clinch the Super Cup and play a decent match”.
 
Feelings and emotions
“It was such an emotional moment, so many memories come back to you from when you started as a kid, when you used to dream of playing in a final and winning it, all that you've gone through to get here. You think about your family too, about being able to win a title and share it with them”.
