CL: Galatasaray 1-6 Real Madrid

Ancoletti reaction after the game

“The match was good and the result is fantastic. After Isco’s goal the match was straightforward. We defended well and then with the counterattack when Benzema and Cristiano Ronaldo have a good night, it is very easy. Winning at this ground is not easy, there is a lot of pressure, and it is good to improve our confidence, personality and character”

“We started the match looking a little bit afraid, but then everything went well. Casillas was unlucky and I hope that he will be better in three or four days. Inside very few minutes Iker made a great save and showed the good form he is in. It was just a knock, it is only pain, but he could not carry on. He is not worried about it and will make a quick recovery”

“The result does not reflect the match. It was difficult and in my opinion the Galatasaray had a great first half. We struggled, but after Isco’s goal it was easier, we had more opportunities to counterattack. I think we started the match with a bit of a lack of confidence and did not show the right attitude to be able to control the play. We controlled things at the back and Galatasaray pressured well. But it is normal, it was the first Champions League match in a very tough stadium to play in. It was important to win the first match”
