We have a lot to improve, but I won't put a 'but' on the effort of my players. Can we do things better? This is Real Madrid, and no one ever gives up. 'There are 36 points left, it's not a goodbye to the league. We are four points behind, but we are convinced we can make a comeback,' he stated at a press conference, insisting the fight is still open. The coach acknowledged the psychological blow is evident after a setback like this. 'Yes, but it's my problem,' he added, taking his share of responsibility. 'No one here is giving up on the league or anything. Real Madrid fell four points behind FC Barcelona, leader of the Spanish League, after losing 1-0 at the Santiago Bernabéu stadium to Getafe. However, after this defeat, Real Madrid coach Álvaro Arbeloa made it clear that the result does not mean saying goodbye to the championship. Despite being four points behind FC Barcelona, leader of the table, the coach conveyed confidence in the team's ability to react. 'We have that objective of continuing to improve, of knowing that we can do things better.' 'After a defeat like today's things look very bleak, there isn't much hope when you lose like that, but our objective is to turn it around. Today, understanding the criticism, but playing badly, worse or regularly, we deserved to score more goals than Getafe,' he concluded. 'And our objective is to get the 36 points, no one is going to throw in the towel. Players who are going to recover and are going to help a lot.' 'I see that we have great players, a great squad. To close, he highlighted the quality of the squad and the potential for improvement.'
