The head coach of Madrid's Real, Xabi Alonso, commented on his debut match in charge of the "royal club". In the match of the first round of the group stage of the club world championship, the Madrid team drew with Al-Hilal.
Xabi Alonso— I understood that change requires time. Some components of the game need to be adjusted, and we will do that. There isn’t enough time. We had only nine days to prepare, and some players had three training sessions. It’s not all that simple, but we will participate in the tournament. Time is needed to implement our plans, — said Xabi Alonso.
