Lucas Vazquez lamented the defeat of Real Madrid in the Madrid derby of the Wanda Metropolitano against Atlético de Madrid, in which he defended that they “showed their faces” but in their best moments in the second half, when he thought they were able to tie the game, he acknowledged that they missed success.

“We knew that it was a complicated match after a very intense week with the celebration of the League and the pass to the Champions League final. We have been defeated but the team has shown its face at all times. Thursday will be another game, “he said on Movistar.

For Lucas Vázquez, the derby left two very different images of the League champion. “In the first half it was harder for us to get out with the ball and make our moves. In the second we dominated the game, we were able to tie the game, but in the end we weren’t successful”.

Carlo Ancelotti opted for rotations and measured the maximum efforts of his starters. “The coach decides the line-ups and we go out on the field to do our best. We have three games left in which we have to go strong to try to win the Champions League,” said Lucas.

“The best way to prepare for the final is to take games for what they are, Spanish league games in which you have to give your all.”
