Bernardo Silva: “We want to keep winning and winning”

Real Madrid midfielder Bernardo Silva talked to the press after the team’s dominating 0-3 victory against Valencia in Mestalla, which allowed Los Blancos to put some pressure on Barcelona for their match against Atlético de Madrid. “A tough match, in a challenging atmosphere, against an aggressive team and a referee who allowed them to be aggressive. That made it complicated for us. Fede’s stunning goal helped us control the game. I felt we always had control of the match and were very organized, managing their transitions very well. The defenders were very aggressive and won quick balls. We’re very happy to secure three more points,” said Silva. This was Madrid’s eighth consecutive win and Bernardo believes that this momentum will put them in a position to succeed this season. “Having eight consecutive wins puts us in a much better position to fight for La Liga and be among the top eight in the Champions League. We’re very happy with this streak, but now we need to focus on the next match and keep going because the atmosphere in the dressing room and at the club is very good. We want to keep winning and winning,” he added. Silva also described Real Madrid’s brilliant goals at Mestalla. “What Fede does is very simple because he strikes the ball so well, and he needs to shoot even more. The other goals were more about teamwork. The third goal was a play by Arda, and the second by Jude. When the team is well-organized, players with their quality will always shine,” he concluded.
