The Real Madrid captain spoke after the defeat

Ramos: "This is reality, and we have to accept it"

 

Sergio Ramos, Real Madrid captain in the Copa del Rey final, braved it up and spoke to reporters as soon as the game against Atlético de Madrid had finished. The man from Seville, speaking to Spanish television, said that "we have to congratulate Atlético, it has been the just winner and deserves its victory. We took things easier after Cristiano's goal, and they took full advantage of it."
"We didn't manage to convert a fair few opportunities; we don't know what would have been the outcome if they had entered. But this is reality and we have to accept it", he said.
Ramos was insistent: "This is reality, there is nothing else. We can now start thinking about the coming season."
