Real Madrid are back in action again! It’s been a busy week for Zinedine Zidane and his side who head to Nuevo Los Carmenes to face Granada on Monday night.
Los Blancos moved four points clear of Barcelona at the top of LaLiga with a 2-0 win against Alaves on Friday night.
“We’re focused on the Granada game. LaLiga and the Champions League are the goals every year and we fight for every one of them. But our energy is focused on tomorrow’s match. It’s no use thinking beyond the Granada game.” Zidane said.
“It’s the last week, with three games to play. It’s the most difficult one because it’s the end of the season, but also the most important for us.
“Every team is playing for something and we want to put in a good performance. We don’t have to think that there are only three matches left, we have to put all our energy into this one against Granada.
“A team is always balanced, in defense and in attack. We know we’re good and I’m happy for Courtois and the team. It means we’re doing things right. That’s the most important thing for a coach. The team digs in, fights and has the desire to do big things to win every game.” Zidane added.
Since the restart, Madrid have hit the ground running. With wins on Monday and Thursday, at Granada and against Villareal, Madrid could clinch its record 34th Laliga title.
“This is the situation we have after the three-month break. We’ve been lucky to play again for the fans and for the players. The situation is what it is, and we are going to try to carry on doing what we’re doing.” Zidane said.
“The team that wins the league will be the one with the most points at the end of the season. It’s not about counting up the points. It’s more about playing the games and we are focussed on tomorrow. We’re all just thinking about the same thing.” Zidane added.
