Real Madrid defender Nacho Fernandez said he was happy get some more playing time in the win over Shakhtar Donesk on Wednesday night.
The centre back was one of many changes made to the team following the weekend defeat to Barcelona.
Los Blancos won 4-3 in Ukraine having been four goals to the good with 12 minutes remaining before the hosts launched a stunning comeback.
Speaking to reporters afterwards, Nacho said: “We’re happy with the win but we have to learn and we need to be able to handle those kinds of situations in games. The aim today was to win and finish top of the group. We were in complete control throughout the match, except for the final 15 minutes. They had more of the ball, they pushed us into our own half and made life difficult for us. They started growing in confidence bit-by-bit, but at the end of the day what matters most is getting the win and learning from our mistakes.
“I’m happy I got to play and I’m adapting to all the different positions. For me playing is what matters, no matter the position. Perhaps we’ve been a bit unlucky in terms of injuries but fingers crossed Varane’s situation isn’t too serious and that players start making their way back from the treatment table.”
Comment:Nacho should work on is positioning and pace and also danilo should work on positioning, pace and tackling and also all other realmadrid defenders and midfieders.
