In the post-match press conference, Ancelotti gave his take on his team's triumph at Balaídos, heaped praise on his newfound goal-machine Javier 'Chicharito' Hernandez and also commented on Real's fight for the league title.

"We played a very good game because winning here supposes that you have to play well. It was tough both mentally and physically. Celta play very well. We are satisfied and happy. The team are very much alive, with the right attitude and show it out on the field. Chicharito is enjoying a wonderful moment, which is really good. The whole team worked very well. We suffered on many occasions, but we were highly effective up in attack", the Real manager reflected.

A daring Celta that paid for it: "I think we all like it when both teams take risks, offering a spectacular match. It was a very open game".

Javier Hernández: "If Chicharito is like he is, then he's untouchable just like Cristiano Ronaldo, like Benzema, James, Bale, Ramos, Isco, Varane, Pepe...I have an amazing team, but only eleven can play; the rest have to sit the game out on the bench".

Does Barca's form worry you?: "No. At the moment, we're not thinking about the others but just about what we have to do. After the defeat in Barcelona, we are trying to fight for the league title to the very end".

Barcelona don't look like they're going to slip up: "No, they don't. Our aim, the strategy, is to oblige Barca to win everything. The figures leave us with no alternative".
