Real Madrid defeated the newly promoted Real Oviedo 3-0 away in the second round of La Liga. Mbappe scored twice, and Vinicius locked the score. After the game, Courtois talked about topics such as the victory in this game and the request of coach Alonso.
Talking about this game
"This is a very critical victory, and it is very important to win away and keep a clean sheet. We did a good job in performance, reaction and pressure, and it continued until the final whistle. We all know that this is a tough game, and it is also the first time Real Madrid has played against Oviedo in La Liga in 24 years.
"This is a stadium that meets La Liga standards, and they are also a team that meets La Liga standards, and I really like playing here. Everyone knows it will be difficult, the opponent performed well in the early stages of the game, and then we started to rebound and created a lot of threats. The opponent's goalkeeper performed well, keeping the suspense of the game until the end. "
The team does a good job lies in?
" In terms of offense, we can actually end the game earlier. With one goal ahead, you know the opponent will definitely have a chance, like that hit the post. All 11 of our players were well involved in the defense and oppression so that we could win more games. On the offense, we ended up having 10 shots and 3 goals, which is crucial. ”What requests did the head coach make for you?
"He asked us to show excellent performance from the beginning and maintain high pressing and high alertness. If you put pressure on the frontcourt, the opponent cannot easily get rid of it and can only choose a long pass, while the defender and I can quickly regain the ball and launch another attack.
"This high-pressure tactic makes it difficult for the opponent to deal with, and this is how we try and it works very well. The opponent may try to get rid of the pressure and fight back, so all of our players must return to defense quickly. This is what we do today and against Osasuna, and it is also the solution we have to follow."
How do you feel?
"I feel good, I don't have much to do against Osasuna. The coach asked me to be more involved in the offense, so I run a lot. When the team pressed in the frontcourt, I needed to stay there and often came to the midfield position. The key is to stay focused and make sure the goal is not lost, such as the save at the last moment. The team's goal is to keep a clean sheet, and winning 3-0 is much better than winning 2-1 and struggling to support in the last few minutes."
Talking about Oviedo fans?
"They are really great, we haven't been here for a long time, which means a lot to them. They are great fans and it feels great to play La Liga here. And there are many people who like Real Madrid. In the hotel, there is a little boy wearing my jersey in particular. Although we were anxious to have lunch, I still walked over and signed him and his father. They were so excited that I cried, which made me very happy.
"These little things can make you happy. Seeing him wearing my jersey, I certainly would take the time to sign the autograph, which brought happiness to both of them and made me very happy. ”
