Fede Valverde spoke to Realmadrid TV after our team's victory over Valencia at the Bernabéu: “We had a spectacular first half. At 3-0, it's normal to relax, but we have to keep improving and try to minimise mistakes. In the second half, we dropped off a bit, but that's part of the result. When you're so far ahead, you allow them to create chances”.

“We have a lot of quality players. I always like to highlight that pride in hunting the ball when the opposition has it. Pressing as quickly as possible when we lose it. That's when we have the most chances. We have to keep working on that. There are some very talented players who are making a huge effort to win the ball back and those of us at the back are very proud of their work”.

Mbappé's goal-scoring statistics
“He's spectacular. We have to enjoy it and get the most out of it. May he continue to score goals for Real Madrid and for himself, so that he can continue to add to his tally on this short journey that has just begun here. He still has a lot to achieve and he will do so because he has all the qualities and is one of the best in the world”.

Carreras's wonder strike
“He has a spectacular shot. He's always shown that in training. He works hard and is keen to keep growing and improving to make his mark at this club. He deserves it, he's a good player and a good person”.
