Sergio Ramos says the draw with PSG on Wednesday night was a positive result taking into account the number of injured players missing.
Los Blancos earned a point in the goalless draw that ensures they remain unbeaten in all competitions this season and have still conceded just two goals along the way.
Real took on the French champions in Paris without the likes of Gareth Bale, Karim Benzema, Luka Modric and James Rodriguez – all sidelined with injury.
Speaking to reporters after the game, the Real captain express his delight at the performance.
“There’s no doubt that it was a difficult game against quality opposition who compete really well, and that’s what the Champions League is all about. We’ll return home happy after a really good performance,” he said.
And he continued: “We competed really well, perhaps we lacked a little bit of cutting edge up front, but we’re happy at having come away with a positive result from a difficult ground to go to. These games are like cup finals and the team that makes the fewest mistakes takes the points, and the fine details determine the result.”
He also hailed the players who stepped in, saying Los Blancos have a strong squad this season.
“The injuries mean we’re not in our best shape, but you have to look forward. We shouldn’t settle for anything or make excuses, we have strength in depth, with players coming in eager to contribute. Today we saw that with Jesé [Rodríguez] and Lucas [Vázquez], who are able to perform well and compete, and they help us to improve as a team.”
