Arbeloa plays down aspects of performance as Madrid snatch injury-time victory - Soccer News
"We won the game, which is what Real Madrid play for. Which is what we want and the objective we had today. There is no better way to celebrate these 124 years of history of the best club in the world, than to do it this way. Like Real Madrid does: fighting against everything and everyone."
"All a Real Madrid player should be is Federico Valverde. He has that 'spirit of Juanito'. Today the team has been put on his back, again. Very happy for him, he deserves it."
Real Madrid defeated Celta Vigo 2-1 with Federico Valverde scoring the decisive goal in injury time. Aurelien Tchouameni opened the scoring after an assist from Arda Guler, but Borja Iglesias equalized for Celta. Despite generating lower expected goals than their opponents and managing only three shots on target, Madrid secured the victory. Head coach Alvaro Arbeloa defended the performance, emphasizing that winning was the priority given the team's injury difficulties. Valverde's deflected effort proved crucial, maintaining Madrid's pursuit of Barcelona at the top of the table.
