Chus Mateo: “It's not easy to win 10 league games in a row”
“How we read the game and our desire to defend better than we did in the first quarter were very positive,” said the coach.
Chus Mateo appeared in the press room at the Movistar Arena to assess the clash between Real Madrid and UCAM Murcia: “It was a tough match against Murcia, runners up in the league last year. We struggled to get into the game and cut the deficit. How we read the game and our desire to defend better than we did in the first quarter were very positive, and we corrected things by having the right attitude. It's not easy to win 10 league games in a row and I'm really pleased."
“Garuba was unbelievable in the first half. His commitment and attitude guided us down the right track, and he's slowly finding his way into the team. I'm delighted with his performance and everyone should follow his way of thinking: more about the team than on an individual level."
Tavares key once again
“We're on a run of games that have come quickly and demanded a lot of us. You can't expect the players to start every game perfectly. Tavares is key for us because of all he offers, his hard work and the way he helps his teammates. He was fantastic at the back today."
