Real Madrid star aims dig at Hansi Flick’s Barcelona | OneFootball

Real Madrid star Dani Ceballos on Sunday night made use of the opportunity to aim a less-than-subtle dig at arch rivals Barcelona.

Real, of course, are fresh off taking their place back atop the La Liga table.

After welcoming Las Palmas to Spain’s capital yesterday evening, Carlo Ancelotti’s troops recovered from an early deficit to ultimately emerge on the right side of a 4-1 result.

The reigning Spanish champions have of course come in for heavy criticism across the season to date, for the level of their performances.

Now sitting pretty at the summit of the table, and a full seven points clear of Barcelona, the subject of the at-times over-the-top condemnation of he and his teammates was therefore put to the aforementioned Dani Ceballos.

And the midfielder, in his response, directed a clear jibe at Barcelona:

“Playing beautifully doesn’t get you results, the important thing is to win.”
