Dani Carvajal, right back of Real Madrid, he sportingly accepted the elimination at Copa del Rey at the hands of Atlético. “Congratulations the rival, he has more goals than us. The last part of extra time was difficult for us, but I will not make excuses for that; 3-2 hurt us a lot. We wanted to continue in the Cup, we gave everything but it was not possible,” he said resignedly.
The merengue defender assured that “the last period of extra time was difficult for us but I don’t attribute it to fatigue. The 3-2 result comes from a defeat when we were at our best, we controlled the ball and the balance may have tipped on our side,” he added.
Carvajal considered it anecdotal that Real Madrid’s two defeats this season were in Civitas Metropolitano and now he is focused on continuing strongly in LaLiga until the return of the Champions League.
“We are very excited about Copa del Rey but it came in tails. There is no one to blame, we gave it our all and we have to focus now The league to widen the distances,” he told TVE.
“It’s just a coincidence that the two losses are here this season. If we have to play again hopefully it won’t happen again. We have given everything but it is not possible, we are now focused on LaLiga and match by match Almeria to continue,” he said.
