Garay press conference

Ezequiel Garay has become a leading figure on Real Madrid’s defence. The player said the team wants a victory on Sunday to continue to stand strong in La Liga.

Villareal:

The league is very important to us. It will be complicated to defeat Villarreal. We want to take three points against them. A victory would be good to get over our Champions League defeat.

Title hopes:

We must focus on each game at a time. We naturally want to be leaders on the table. We want Barcelona to know we’re following right behind them if they drop points this weekend. We want them to know they may lose the top position.

Defensive stability:

The entire team is responsible for our solid defending. It is important for us not to concede any goals.

Thursday round up

Turbanator Salvation

Buenos venidos all,

It was a thrilling day. India won the second test against South Africa in Kolkata that helped them retain the number 1 spot in Test Match cricket and draw level the series in an nail biting encounter that saw the uprising of a new hero in the oldest format of the game. The name is Hashim Amla, and he is not a terrorist. Harbhajan Singh though was India’s hero though picking up five crucial wickets in the decisive second innings including the final wicket that resulted in India winning the match by an innings and 57 runs.

Before you close the window and move out, let me make myself clear. This post is about Real Madrid. Its more about Real Madrid than anything else. The above was just another way of me getting into what I really want to tell you people.

Real Madrid’s next game is Sunday’s 21:00 CET home clash against Villarreal. The importance of this crucial game goes without saying as we’re just two points behind Barcelona and with their injury crisis in mind this period will be the one that decides whether the title will be heading back home to Madrid or whether it will stay in Barcelona.

Sergio Ramos joined Real Madrid in 2005 at the age of 19. He has now played a total of 199 matches (including 26 goals) for us, the last being the one against Lyon. Sunday’s match will be his 150th in La Liga since moving to the Bernabeu. It is important to note that the defender, this year, joined Raul, Guti and Casillas as a team captain. The game will also be his 200th game overall for Real Madrid.
