And the Madrid legend took the liberty of opening the scoring for his team, heading home from a corner in the 24th minute. Surely satisfied with the 1-1 draw against a European powerhouse, the Spaniard shared a few words after the match.
Interviewed on the sidelines of the match, the 39-year-old suggested that Milan may not have taken his team seriously enough: " Today, football has a high level of technology that allows you to have information on practically any player. But in that sense, if they only know two of us, so much the better, because tomorrow they will see the level of some players and that we have a lot of talent. We talk more on the pitch than off it. We come here with a lot of enthusiasm, with a lot of desire, with a lot of respect for all our opponents because obviously they have many more names than us, they are the favorites. There is a great opportunity, a showcase for young players. The occasion is very important and it is good to say to ourselves 'here we are'. We will play against any team and we are here to give the best of ourselves." Afterwards, it's football, talent and the little details that make the difference, but the mentality is to come and play on an equal footing with any opponent. " A score that suggests great prospects for the Mexicans, who will face River Plate on the second day .
