Real Madrid put Alavés to the sword at Mendizorroza and Karim Benzema, who hit a brace, expressed his satisfaction at the win: “We put in a good performance and that's good for our confidence. We know that every game and opponent is tough. Tonight we all went out there raring to play well and we put in performance. The goals, crosses and passes are the result of the work we put in every day and tonight everything came off for us”.

“We always want to win and be up there in the table. We're on the right track after what's been a tough week for us. There's still a long way to go in the LaLiga season and we're going to keep this up. I'm always keen to help my teammates and tonight I've done well, but it wasn't just me, it was a whole team effort”.

Hazard “He was a Chelsea player and now he's got to write his own story at Madrid. I see him as being in good shape, he works hard in training and tonight he put in a good display. We need Hazard to be at his best”.
