Morientes: “I’ve seen critical situations in December that have ended in a Champions League trophy”

Fernando Morientes, a legendary figure in Real Madrid’s history, was in the spotlight today as part of the LaLiga EA Sports X FC 25 Rush event at Gamergy.

Before taking to the pitch, Morientes spoke to the media on Real Madrid’s current situation, Kylian Mbappé’s form, and his hopes for the La Liga season.

“Madridistas Can Rest Easy”
“I’ve seen critical situations in December that have ended in a league trophy or Champions League trophy,” Morientes remarked. “Critical situations are in April—when the important things are at stake.

“At this time of year, it’s about fighting for everything. You can be third, second, first, but you can’t fall too far behind the leaders. And the same goes for the Champions League. This format allows you to recover even after a slow start.
