Nolito praises Madrid attack

Celta Vigo winger Nolito has praised the Real Madrid forward line following his side’s 4-2 loss to Los Blancos at Balaidos.

A brace from Javier Hernandez and one each from Toni Kroos and James Rodriguez proved enough for Carlo Ancelotti’s men to take all three points, but not before the Galicians had put up a fight.

“We faced a Madrid team that possesses a lot of talent and are great in attack,” the 28-year-old told reporters post-match.

“We didn’t do badly in this game although we lacked composure at certain times, but we must congratulate Real Madrid.

“They killed us with the three goals they scored in the first half and the fourth one eventually saw us off, but we were brave and competed.

“We lacked self-assurance when we were ahead but we tried. Right now we have 42 points and we’ll contest every game,” he declared.
