Daniel Carvajal has said the victory over Sevilla on Saturday gave Real Madrid three huge points in their attempts to overtake Barcelona in La Liga.

Los Blancos remain just two points behind, but games are running out for them. Three rounds of matches are left to play, and Real must win all three and hope Barcelona slip up against Atletico, Real Sociedad or Deportivo La Coruna.

Speaking to reporters after the game, the right back stated: “Sevilla had gone 34 games without a loss here and we go away happy with the three points that allow us to keep fighting for La Liga. It was a difficult and hard-fought game. We suffered in the last ten minutes but victory tastes better like that.

“Now all the matches are finals, we will aim to win the three remaining games and hope that Barcelona lose a few points. We depend on Atlético, Real Sociedad and Deportivo.”

Real must switch their attention to the Champions League though. This week, they face newly crowned Italian champions Juventus – and Carvajal was quick to play down the favourites tag.

“We are not superior, this is a Champions League semi-final and there are no favourites. They have just won their league and we will try to get a good result,” he commented.
