UCL: Real Madrid fully ready for Arsenal at Bernabeu – Dani Ceballos

Dani Ceballos sent a message to Real Madrid ahead of the Champions League game against Arsenal. “We need players who give 200% and an incredible atmosphere at the Bernabéu,” said the midfielder.

Madrid’s Ceballos, who reappeared in the win against Alaves after 145 days out, focused on the European comeback attempt against Arsenal, after losing 3-0 in London, and called for “an incredible atmosphere at the Bernabeu” next Wednesday.

“We need players who give 200 per cent, we need a dedicated fans who believe as we believe. The only option we have is to be stronger together and for there to be an incredible atmosphere at the Bernabeu to turn around a very difficult result,” said the player.

Ceballos highlighted Madrid’s defensive improvement to end their poor run of results with a hard-fought win at Mendizorroza against Alaves.

“We knew it was a difficult game that was going to cost us, especially at the start because of the intensity of the opposition, but we made it 1-0 and after Kylian’s sending off the team was more solid. It’s a very important victory for us,” he added.

Having recovered from his muscle injury, Ceballos played the final moments of the game to get back into contention before challenging for a starting place against Arsenal. ‘Little by little I’m feeling better. I’m happy to be back with the team and to be able to help.
