What They're Saying
Getafe full-back Juan Valera (via Inside Spanish Football): "Real Madrid are used to picking themselves up when they lose and have suffered a blow. When they win, their dynamic continues, hand in hand with thinking about winning every game."
Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti (via Goal): "I would be worried if we had no opportunities to score. I cannot worry about that. The concern is for the defensive mistakes."
