"Vinicius had a brutal season in which he was a decisive player and today he has shown that he is the best player in the world. We are very happy to be able to enjoy him," he said in the mixed zone at the Santiago Bernabeu.
Lucas praised Real Madrid's change of attitude in the second half after Carlo Ancelotti's half-time talk with 0-2 on the scoreboard. "We came in pissed off because of what we saw in the first half. None of us were happy, we looked each other in the face and told each other that we couldn't go on like that because we weren't giving what we needed to win the Champions League," he said.
"In the second half, we saw another Real Madrid that won duels, played with intensity and, as a result, we scored five goals," he added. Real Madrid's comeback brought back a special atmosphere at the Santiago Bernabeu. "It's difficult to explain what we experienced. We've had a few more of these and it's a great feeling in the stadium: at 1-2 when we score, the fans and ourselves know that we're going to turn the game around. We believe it".
"You have to believe until the end and never give up, fight until the last minute. These are the Real Madrid values that we have shown today", he concluded.
