Real Madrid beat Alaves: “Our fans ask us to win always and we have to deliver it, we are used to the pressure, and in the second half they gave us the support we needed to win,” Dani Carvajal told reporters.

“I understand the fans being upset, in Real Madrid the highest level is a must,” Carvajal said, referring to booing from the stands after a goalless first half against the second-from-bottom side.

While the result may have looked comfortable, Real looked tired and sluggish from the start, managing only two shots on target in the first half.

Real Madrid beat Alaves: Manager Carlo Ancelotti, who has often been criticised for the lack of rotation in his starting 11, made no changes until Asensio and Vinicius had worked their magic late on.

The win may give Real a bit of breathing room at the top of the table – but not enough to lower the pressure or expectations they face from their fans.
