Tremendous work by Joselu to vindicate himself and send Real Madrid to the round of 16

After scoring the first goal in the match, Joselu admitted that it "cost more than normal" to get to the Round of 16. Likewise, the Spanish striker pointed out the awareness of the difficulty in these matches and the need to avoid excuses, stating that, like Real Madrid, they must go out to win on any field.

“We know the difficulty of these games, the playing field, but there are no excuses and we are Real Madrid and we have to go out and win on any field. It cost more than normal, but we are happy for the victory,” he expressed to the merengue attacker.

The forward started the match and scored Real Madrid's first penalty goal of the season, on the white team's fourth attempt. Given this, the Spaniard commented that despite the poor condition of the field, he was sure when it came to taking the maximum penalty.

Final sensations

"I have shot many in my life, the coach continues to give me confidence. The field was a little soft, I was afraid to hit it too hard and it would go up, but with confidence to put them in," he said.
