“We were a bit tired, but we knew we had to win this match. Therefore, it was important to count on all the young players, as with the support of the youth academy players, we were able to play a good match and achieve a clear victory.”

What does Arbeloa ask of you?
“We get along very well with the coach, and we stand by him both in good times and tough moments. Today, after the goal, I went to celebrate with him and everyone. The coach asks different things of me depending on the position. When I play in our own half, he wants me to get more involved in the buildup, and when I am further forward, he asks me to play more between the lines and be more incisive. I always try to do my best.”

Tuesday's match against Manchester City…
“Yes, we have to go out to dominate the match from the start, and that way, we can score more goals.”
