Capello hails Real's 'spectacular' second half display
Published in FilGoal on 07 - 05 - 2007

Real Madrid coach Fabio Capello was satisfied to see his side complete a strong comeback from a goal down to beat Spanish Primera Liga rivals Sevilla 3-2 at the Bernabeu.
The Madridista ended the first-half trailing Sevilla by a goal from Italian midfielder Enzo Maresca, but Real bounced back with three goals in the second half.
"In the second half the team has played a great game, spectacular, with quality, speed, and great efficiency in front of goal, something we lacked in the first half," Capello told a press conference.
"Everyone who participated did an exceptional job. They played a perfect match against a great Sevilla team that is very strong physically and very good technically, and that's what makes it so much more significant. We played with team spirit."
The Italian tactician's second half introduction of midfielder Guti, proved a turning point to the game as the Spanish international set up Ruud Van Nistelrooy for the equalizer and Robinho for the second decisive goal.
"Things have changed when Guti came in, he has played very well in the last three games, but he can play from the very start. We're not going to question his ability," Capello added.

Game hero Guti
However, the Italian criticized winning-goal hero, Robinho, for his celebration which cost him a red card for a second bookable offense.
"The player had already been booked and then he took off his shirt after he scored, which he was then sent off for."
Real trail leaders Barcelona by a narrow 2-point deficit with five weeks remaining, but Capello prefers to take each game independently.
"We're here to win every match because we're treating them all as finals. So we have five left to play and five left to win," he said.
"We're only thinking about Espanyol, I saw them play today, and next Saturday's game will be anything but easy."
