Real Madrid news

Los Merengues have just made it through the round of 32 of the Copa del Rey with much more difficulty than expected. Los Blancos defeated Talavera 3-2 with a brace from Kylian Mbappé.

Xabi Alonso spoke after the match at a press conference, where he expressed his satisfaction with the victory, but also pointed out some negative aspects of his team's performance.

"These things happen in the Cup. It's happened to us and I've seen it happen to other teams too. Even at 1-3, we conceded that free kick, that 2-3, Talavera got back into it... Not scoring the 0-3 leaves the game open and that's how it was until the end," said the Spanish coach.

"It was a competitive second half. It was an exciting Cup tie. We achieved our goal and now we'll see what happens next. The goal is to go through, so I'm satisfied and happy. We lacked a bit of continuity, we need to be more consistent during games and not think that nothing can happen. We need to be more mature," he added.

Sevilla news

For their part, the Nervionenses suffered a disappointment in the cup tournament, where they were defeated 0-1 by Alavés. Matías Almeyda lamented the elimination, but highlighted the positive aspects of his team.

"We did some good things, some things were missing, but the match was pretty even. These qualifiers are decided by small details. "We were clearer in the first half and in the second half that last play was the one where everyone goes up and you might get the equaliser, but I think we lacked a bit more clarity in the first half, because we were clear, moving from one area to another. The team did similar things to the last game with different players, but this was about winning to go through," explained the Argentine coach.
