Ultimately, we know it is difficult, but we must fight for the title, even if it is a massive challenge,&#8221; he told Real Madrid Television.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Los Blancos narrowly overcame Alaves on Tuesday evening in a contest where both Kylian Mbappe and Vinicius found the back of the net, with the latter notably offering an apology to the supporters during the match.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;We started the match very well, but then our levels dropped at times, which I don&#8217;t think should be happening to us,&#8221; he declared. &#8220;We managed to secure the win and we&#8217;re pleased with the three points. Alaves are fighting for survival, giving 100 or 200 per cent, and we have to match that intensity.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Real Madrid defender Dean Huijsen urged his side to target victory in every remaining fixture, acknowledging the scale<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1570,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1569","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mktynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1569","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mktynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mktynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mktynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mktynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1569"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/mktynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1569\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1571,"href":"https:\/\/mktynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1569\/revisions\/1571"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mktynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1570"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mktynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1569"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mktynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1569"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mktynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1569"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
