A shot from outside the F areaEd Valverdewhich would end up being slightly deflected by Meret at 78′ to give Real Madrid the three points on the second day of the Champions League.
Despite the fact that the merengue club started below in the scoring against the Napoli at the Diego Armando Maradona stadium, those led by Carlo Ancelotti knew how to respond with a goal from Vinícius Jr (27′), Bellingham (34′), and a shot from the Uruguayan midfielder to make it 2-3.
Valverde spoke on the pitch after the match about his impressions of the match. “We have equipment to play much better in a few minutes,” he said.
“We had a lot of control in the first half. We have to be self-critical. We played a good game. They scored the goal against us in the penalty, but we knew how to move forward. “We were playing a good game and with the goal we went back.”
“The first goal came from a recovery by Jude and he assisted Vini and in the second Jude did magic. They have to continue on this path. They deserve it,” commented Valverde.
“It made me feel sorry because I looked at the scoreboard and Valverde wasn’t on. An opponent joked with me that it wasn’t my goal. It’s okay, if my goal had been worth it I would have bet. “We have to continue working with humility,” the Uruguayan player mentioned with a laugh.
Valverde also spoke to the media in the mixed zone at the end of the match and spoke of a reference in the merengue midfield such as Modric.
“When Luka Modric comes in he gives enthusiasm, energy when you are getting tired and you see him he gives you the motivation to keep fighting, he is my reference and I immediately went to hug him, “The day he retires will remain in my memories.”
The white box will face health next Saturday, October 7, in a match corresponding to the ninth round of LaLiga.
