The centre-back was niggled but is expected to be fine Sergio Ramos played brilliantly but abandoned the match in the second half with a niggled thigh and psoas. “I've been niggled since the Almería match, and then I hurt my psoas when playing with the national team. I have plenty of days to recover and I expect to play against Betis.” “We have to appreciate the team effort. We were very enthused and managed to dominate the game. It could have gone either way in the first few minutes, but we slowly took control and did a great job finishing.” “The first goal came early and settled us down, and then we were fortunate enough to have the others go in. We maintained our intensity even after scoring so many goals.” “We're calm. There's been a lot of talk, but there's a lot of league to be played. Although we have a significant advantage, we have to make sure we keep it up. The Champions League is about to begin again, so we need to keep distancing ourselves.”
