The head coach of Madrid’s Real, Xabi Alonso, summed up the team’s performance at the Club World Cup.
Xabi Alonso, Getty Images“We will take the positives from this period of the Club World Cup. We are leaving here a stronger team. This is a starting point for a better start to next season. I’m talking about the team, not individual players.
Today against PSG, we had certain deficiencies, and sometimes it’s useful to see the mistakes to draw conclusions for the future. If we keep repeating the same mistake over and over — we won’t be smart.
This tournament taught me a lot — who we are and what we need to work on. I will go with a vision for next year, when we will bring back certain players and there will be changes. I will take all the information that this tournament gave me. We want to build a team that plays as a single unit, where everyone is involved,” Alonso is quoted by the press service of Real.
