Real Madrid captain Sergio Ramos says the ‘love and confidence from the fans was vital’ in the win over Wolfsburg on Tuesday.
Los Blancos booked their place in the semi final of the Champions League thanks to Cristiano Ronaldo’s hat trick which helped overturn the 2-0 defeat they suffered last week.
And speaking to the media after the game, Ramos said the home support, who roared on Real from start to finished, was key in keeping the momentum going in the player’s favour.
“It was special, from the first minute until the last. We have to be grateful that grounds like this don’t exist. The love and confidence of the fans was fundamental from the start, showing that it could be achieved. The team has put their heart and soul in to it, like we promised the fans we would and we’re deservedly in to the semi-finals,” he said.
And he added: “There we people who though that the comeback wasn’t possible. We knew how to manage the game, as it’s not possible to maintain the pressure for 45 minutes, we did it for the first 30. In the second half the idea was to go out with a high intensity and look for the goal.”
