After Real Madrid advanced to the quarter-finals of the Club World Cup, defender Fran Garcia spoke to the media and made some comments about the game.
Fran Garcia said: "Today's game was generally stable. In the first half, both sides were well prepared and had plenty of energy. In the second half, we seized the opportunity and sufficient energy was very beneficial to us."
"This high-pressure tactic suits my style very well. The coach requires us to steal the ball in the opponent's half as much as possible, so that we can create more offensive opportunities. This is very beneficial for the forwards. Trent and I need to actively support, push the defense forward, and maintain overall coordination."
Regarding Gonzalo, Fran Garcia said: "I've been through a lot and also come from my hometown where the situation is similar to him or Asensio. Therefore, I told him to be ready. Congratulations to him for this recognition and encourage him to keep working hard."
"I hope that all the children who are with us, and those in Madrid who haven't had the chance yet, understand that everyone is important. I hope we can draw strength from them."
