Zinedine Zidane insisted that Real Madrid will not give up in the LaLiga title race and praised a professional performance in Tuesday’s 2-0 win over Getafe.
Goals in the second half by Karim Benzema and Ferland Mendy at the Alfredo Di Stefano stadium put the champion three points ahead of Barcelona in second place in the table.
They are still five points behind leader Atlético de Madrid and have now played two more games than their city rivals, but Zidane says the fight will continue.
“I do not think that the fans of Madrid believe that we will not win LaLiga,” Zidane said on the club’s website. They always believe that we can change things.
That is what we will try to do, even if it is difficult. We believe in ourselves. There are many games ahead and there is still to be played. ”
Real were weakened by the absence of several players through injury and played wingers Mendy and Nacho in an impromptu defense of three, but experienced little alarm against a Getafe team that posed little threat.
Zidane said: ‘We use this system to adapt to the situation, given that we have a lot of players out. We handle the game well without having worked much on it.
“I am satisfied for the players because they performed very well on defense. Our attitude was exemplary.
‘We just take care of our business. There are 48 points to play and we will continue to focus on ourselves. We have to fight, keep working hard and not look at what others are doing. ‘
