Real Madrid boss Mourinho pleased with Ozil performance

Real Madrid coach Jose Mourinho was happy with Mesut Ozil's performance for their 2-2 draw at Barcelona.

Ozil has been at odds with Mourinho this season, but the coach praised the German at the final whistle.

"He came off of the field because he was exhausted. To play against Barcelona you have to do a good job in midfield because if not it makes it impossible and the three in midfield had fantastic matches," said Mourinho.
