The Spanish international has offered his opinion regarding the performance of Los Blancos in the first two matches of the Spanish Primera, suggesting that it was unexpected.
Barcelona’s http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Gerard-c14664 Pique has revealed his surprise in wake of Real Madrid’s inability to secure a victory in the first two weeks of the Spanish La Liga.
Los Merengues were held to a draw against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Valencia-c40863 in the opening game of this year’s league campaign.
Even though the Whites played the match at home and were enjoying a good run of form, they were unable to emerge victorious from their encounter against Los Che.
Experts and pundits expected the Spanish giants to easily claim all 3 points from the fixture, however, things turned out to be quite different.
In addition to the first match-day’s disappointment, Madrid had more misery in store for them as they suffered defeat in their next La Liga match against Getafe.
As Jose Mourinho’s men travelled away from home seeking redemption, they were once again predicted to emerge victorious.
However, despite taking the lead against the hosts, the Whites were faced with discontent once again as they allowed their opposition to complete a remarkable comeback.
The match against Getafe ended in a 2-1 defeat for the current champions of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Spain-c3011.
Pique has asserted that he did not expect Los Vikingos to drop 5 points in the first two matches of the season. However, the defender maintained that there is still a long way to go and Mourinho’s men can easily find their winning ways yet again.
While talking to reporters, the World Cup winner was quoted as saying:
"It's a surprise. Nobody expected them to lose 5 points in two games, but it doesn't mean anything. We know Madrid and after this it's still possible that they could go on a streak of 30 games without losing. We need to be ready for that."
"Seasons are very long and we also need to play in the Champions League and 'Copa'. The most consistent team will win, whoever deserves it after 38 league games and not in the first two".
Although there is a long way to go in the season, some ridiculous claims by the Spanish media suggest that the season could already have been decided, but there is no doubt that there is still a long way to go in the Spanish La Liga season.
