Real Madrid head coach Alvaro Arbeloa commented on the intense competition with Barcelona for the La Liga title. Currently, the "royal club" is in second place in the league table, trailing the Catalans by 4 points. But for Arbeloa, this difference is not a "judgment" - it's just a signal that further invigorates the struggle.
The coach emphasizes that there is still a long way ahead. He openly stated the score: the team will still play for 36 points. So, the championship race isn't over yet, it's too early to say it's over.
"We are not 18 points, but 4 points behind the leader. We look at the situation truthfully. As long as there is an opportunity, we will fight to the end. Real Madrid will never retreat, they will always strive forward," Arbeloa said confidently.
At the same time, he did not hide the fact that criticism intensified after the last two defeats. It's natural: Losing at Real Madrid isn't a simple result; it's always a big uproar. But Arbeloa's position is clear: the team understands everything correctly, draws conclusions, and enters each subsequent game with a three-point goal.
According to the coach, the most important thing now is not rushed panic, but composure, discipline, and stability. Because in La Liga, the championship is often decided not by one or two brilliant games, but specifically by the mental strength of a long marathon.
The conclusion is this: Real Madrid isn't in the mood to surrender. 4 points is still the "distance that can be reached." Therefore, every upcoming match for the "royal club" is a final. The final word wasn't spoken in the championship race - and Arbeloa believes exactly that.
