Following Los Blancos’ back-to-back stalemates in La Liga, the Brazilian wing-back attributed the results to refereeing decisions.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Cristiano-Ronaldo-c9629 combined with Mesut Ozil to score the only goal which Madrid scored against Villarreal.
However, the former Manchester United winger was resigned to see his side settle for a point the second time this week, as referee Jose Luis Paradas Romero blew for full-time.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Marcos-c23772 Senna’s sensational free kick settled the match with seven minutes remaining in the game.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Sergio-Ramos-c33096, Mesut Ozil and Jose Mourinho all saw headed for an early bath in the fixture as the Capital club dropped four points in two matches.
Following the lack lustre draw, Real Madrid left-back, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Marcelo-c23554, felt that the Spanish giants’ efforts were undone by the referee.
The Brazilian international believes that Madrid will have to get their act together and improve in front of the net, in order to maintain their lead in La Liga.
Marcelo pointed towards their delicacy at set-pieces and remarked that they should deal such situations in a better way.
He added that they still command a respectable 6-point advantage at the top of La Liga table and need to calm their nerves as La Liga enters its final stretch.
"We are getting on with our work but sometimes referees go against us."
"We will have to keep on working.”
"We have to improve in a lot of things. Tonight we conceded another goal from a set-piece but we're still in front and we'll keep working."
"I think any team would like to have a six-point lead," the Brazilian reasoned. "We must be calm.”
"Tonight was a tough match but we're fine. We did not get the victory but the team spirit is good."
In their next league outing, Real Madrid welcome Real Sociedad to the Santiago Bernabeu and need to collect the maximum points as only 10 La Liga fixtures remain, including a trip to the Camp Nou.
