Casillas: “This team is the best group in which I lived”
Casillas admitted in the presentation of the book ‘Secrets of the Red’, written by a journalist from Radio MARCA Miguel Angel Diaz, who had the “fortune” to belong to the group that won the European Championship and recalled the moment when picked Cup Champions of Europe, which he described as “magical and special.” “This team is the best group I’ve had and I have lived. There are good vibes, no one gets angry, but not only when it was won, but long before. This was reflected and was,” said Casillas.
Real Madrid goalkeeper said that both white and FC Barcelona have the “merits” to get the league, but acknowledged that Barca have won the one-point lead he has in the table “on merit”, adding, however, still harbor “hopes” of winning the title.
“The two have made merits to win the league, but only one can win. Barcelona, in its own right, has earned that advantage and now has everything to please to take the title,” said Casillas. However, Real Madrid goalkeeper recalled the two Leagues of Tenerife, where Real Madrid was all in favor to become champion and turned to the situation, so he still has “hopes” that history will repeat itself in reverse and which may well lift the title.
“Part of our head think of the Barcelona-Valladolid, but we have to win our match against Malaga. The stakes are high Valladolid and Malaga also going to be two very difficult games for both,” said Casillas, aware that leaving them “win at Malaga and wait.”
