Vazquez confirmed pressure on Real Madrid to win the CL
Real Madrid managed to win the European championship last season and this season is also one of the favorites.
Real Madrid defender Lucas Vazquez claimed that the pressure is on for them to defend their Champions League title.
Carlo Ancelotti had a great return to Madrid and was able to win La Liga and the Champions League in the first season of his second term at the Santiago Bernabeu. Los Blancos were able to reach their fourteenth championship in the Champions League, five championships have been won in the last eight years. Now Vasquez confirmed that last season's championship has increased the pressure on the team to fight for this season as well.
“A Champions League is not won by luck or chance. Each one is more difficult than the previous one and having achieved so many is a source of pride.
“The truth is, it doesn’t matter what they think outside. It doesn’t bother us what they say, it’s just another motivation for us.
“Last year we weren’t favourites and we won it. It doesn’t depend on us, we have to try to win it, and that’s what we do every year.”
Real Madrid will face Shakhtar Donetsk in their next match in the Champions League tomorrow night in Warsaw.
