After a spell of positive results, we\u2019re now dealing with outcomes we didn\u2019t want. But we know our direction. We have to keep getting better. We\u2019re frustrated because we always aim to win, and when we don\u2019t, we can\u2019t be content. There are still many matches left this year, and we must already be thinking about next season and evaluating what happened today.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Alonso\u2019s comments highlight his strong sense of self-criticism as he works to steer the team back on course, with full attention now turning to the upcoming Champions League fixture against Olympiacos.<\/p>\n<p>He also took a moment to applaud the display of academy graduate Ra\u00fal Asensio, who shone as one of the standout performers. Alonso personally congratulated the young centre-back after the match, praising his exceptional showing.<\/p>\n<p>With \u00c9der Milit\u00e3o sidelined, Asensio has clearly become one of the defenders Alonso relies on most in one-on-one situations, drawing comparisons from fans to Real Madrid icon Sergio Ramos.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<nav aria-label=\"Posts\">\n<h2>Post navigation<\/h2>\n<\/nav>\n<\/article>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In a pivotal La Liga clash at the Manuel Mart\u00ednez Valero Stadium, Real Madrid could not secure all three points against Elche, with the match finishing in a 2-2 draw.
