Real Madrid midfielder Fede Valverde says the players were delighted after their 3-0 win against Mallorca.

The victory sees Real Madrid move ten points clear at the top of the table.

Valverde said, “It was important for us to get the win tonight. We knew that the sides directly behind us had slipped up.

"It was a tough game, but after applying a high press, we managed to get in front and the game then opened up.

“We knew that they would put us under pressure and would have the support of their fans, which really spurred them on. I think that we played some very good stuff, although we didn't manage to convert our chances. However, as I've said, we made the breakthrough in the second half."
