Real Madrid head coach Xabi Alonso commented on the upcoming Champions League match against Olympiakos.

“We need a good match and after the last games we need to feel the taste of winning again. For that we have to play well, with focus and understand that this is an important match to go further. Even though we have nine points, we want to add. After the match against Liverpool and the next two league games, we want a different result.

I follow Olympiakos not only because we knew we were playing them in the Champions League, but also because I have huge personal respect for Mendilibar and Darko Kovacevic. I know what they accomplished in the Conference League last year. Mendilibar is a great coach who promotes a very intense style of play. He achieved this at Olympiakos and is getting the same recognition as at Eibar and other clubs.

Real Madrid never won in Greece? We talked about it. I hope we win. Everything happens for the first time,” the club’s press service quotes Alonso as saying.

We will remind you that the match between Olympiakos and Real Madrid will take place today, November 26, at 22:00 Kyiv time.
