Madrid took on Girona on LaLiga match day 24 and following the clash, Solari spoke to the press in the media room at the Santiago Bernabéu: “It’s a real shame, we’ve dropped points while our rivals won so we’re further off the pace. We had been on a great run, cutting the gap, and we have to keep getting stronger but we’re three points further back than we were yesterday”.

“LaLiga isn’t over, absolutely not. We’ll keep fighting on all three fronts still open to us. Every game is difficult, it doesn’t matter who you’re up against, that’s been shown here today. Girona were very well disciplined and we have to keep working hard to try and win games”.

“You will always get teams who turn up for these games, they were great today in the first half despite our dominance, before coming out with real energy in the second half, putting the pressure on and attacking well. We lacked a bit of a clinical edge to get in behind more and find another goal”.
