Real Madrid's French midfielder Aurelien Tchoaumeni praised team-mate Jude Bellingham, scorer of Real Madrid's last-gasp winner against Union Berlin, and said the Englishman "enjoys every minute at the Bernabeu".
"We have to score goals earlier, but the important thing is that in the end we won the game and we are happy. At Real Madrid you have to give everything until the end of every game. In the past we have seen the team win at the end of many games, we follow the history of the club with comebacks but it is always better to win earlier if possible," he said in the mixed zone at the Santiago Bernabeu.
"Jude is an incredible player, we are very happy to be able to play with him. He enjoys every minute of training and every minute he plays at the Santiago Bernabeu," he added. For Tchouameni, Real Madrid's win was deserved and had to come earlier and in a more comfortable manner. "We enjoyed the final goal because we had a lot of chances. We played a good game, but we need to score more goals to be more relaxed during the matches.
"I have to improve in everything, but I'm calm because it's not easy to come to Real Madrid, especially after Casemiro. I have confidence in my game, with my team-mates and we want to have a good season together," he added. Finally, he joked about the favouritism that his coach, Ancelotti, gave Manchester City in the Champions League: "Did the coach say City? I have to talk to him. For me, Madrid are the favourites, for sure".
