Real Madrid got a 2-0 victory over Celta Vigo, with Marco Asensio and Eder Militao getting the goals for the Los Blancos.
Speaking after the game, Madrid boss Carlo Ancelotti admitted he was pleased with his side’s performance, and heaped praises on two Real Madrid players – Asensio and Eduardo Camavinga.
Ancelotti said: “I was very pleased with the team’s attitude. We controlled the game well. The team look good out there and we were able to rest the players with the most fatigue. I made the changes to slow the game down a bit because the team was doing well and all the players are feeling good. Asensio and Camavinga particularly stood out.
“We have to manage the next games adequately and I have every confidence in the squad. We can handle the rotations very well because the attitude of the team is positive and that’s the most important thing for these games and even more so when you get home at six o’clock on a Wednesday morning and play on Saturday. The team is very strong mentally.
“I’m very pleased that we haven’t conceded a goal in the last four games. It’s a biproduct of collective health and commitment. When there is good defensive commitment and you have such quality up front, you’re always going to score goals.”
