The Special One has given word that the silverware has almost slipped from his side’s grasp as they could be looking at another season of watching their fiercest rivals triumph.
Real Madrid head coach, Jose Mourinho, has taken out time to suggest that his side are practically out of the race for the silverware in this season’s league campaign. The veteran trainer added that the points gap between Los Blancos and Barcelona appears
to be a bridge too far for the defending champions.
According to Mourinho, it is almost impossible for Los Merengues to defend their Spanish La Liga title in the present circumstances. The manager voiced that that the two sides have quite a lot of deficit between them in terms of points, suggesting that Barca
have one hand on the trophy.
However, the Special One did maintain that this does not mean that Los Vikingos are ready to give up the title just yet. He asserted that the nine-time European champions will fight until the very end in order to come away with the best possible result.
Los Blancos played out a 2-2 draw against Espanyol this weekend. The draw sees them drop 2 more points in the league table. On the other hand, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604 emerged 4-1 victorious over Atletico Madrid, which takes them 9 points clear at the top.
Consequently, Mourinho conceded that his team are prepared to focus on their Champions League campaign.
“I think winning the league is almost impossible, but we still have perform better, because if we improve in La Liga, we improve in the Champions League. We are not as good as before. We do not have the same joy and confidence, and we struggle to score as
much as last year. I have never been in this situation, but I do not lack strength.” the former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Inter-c39567 boss quoted
“We will continue to fight for the title, even though it seems impossible, because this is Real Madrid. Everyone has to stand up for themselves - for ambition, personal dignity, and the Real Madrid name.”
The difference between Barcelona and Real Madrid in the league table is currently 13 points.
