• 1-0 in Sevilla, 2-0 against Gladbach and 2-0 against Atletico – a perfect week for the Zidane team, which is back on track. Right-back Dani Carvajal, who scored the second goal in the derby, emphasized the importance of the win: “If we had lost, they would have gotten away from us in the league. Therefore, victory is very important for us. “

Carvajal also talked about his team’s three successes: “We had a very difficult week ahead of us with the away game in Seville, this final against Gladbach and now against Atlético, which was unbeaten. We got nine out of nine possible points, but it doesn’t stop there. On Tuesday we have another very important game in which we can only score. ”
