‘We run a lot!’ – Marc Cucurella hits back at claims Real Madrid are lazy after shock Liga defeats
Los Blancos have faced heavy media pressure following their frustrating defeat to Betis and a painful derby loss against Atletico. These setbacks have naturally amplified debates surrounding their physical approach to games.
Despite heavily defending his team-mates, Cucurella acknowledged the undeniable value of the underlying statistics. He recognised that the squad must use these figures constructively to address their current flaws.
“In the end, the data is there,” the Spanish international conceded. “The data is also useful for improving, for working on things, and knowing that perhaps we need to give a little more or finish improving things.”
