Real Madrid got the better of Real Sociedad thanks to Endrick’s solitary strike, and the forward had the following to say after the final whistle: “It was a difficult game, a Copa match that everyone wants to win. It’s not easy to play here, but we did what we came to do – win the game. ”
“We’re 0-1 up, which is great because the return leg is at home. We’re going back to Madrid to train hard for the next game against Betis. When the second leg comes around, we’ll go all out to win it because we want to get our hands on the Copa.”
“I started the move off with a pass to Vini Jr., he laid it to Bellingham and I had space to run into. When he saw me, I made the run and he delivered the ball. I took it down well and shot with the outside of my boot. I think it was a really nice goal. I love scoring goals because I want to help the team but I can do that by scoring or running hard too. I’m thrilled to get the win and the goal.”
“When Bellingham got on the ball and spotted the space in behind and I had to make the run, I knew he’d find me with the pass. He’s one of the best players in the world and I knew the ball would come. I had to control it well and do a good job, then when I was up against the keeper, make sure I finished. I hit it with the outside of the boot because I had to.”
