Real Madrid captain Ramos: Barcelona equaliser came thanks to hard work

Real Madrid captain Sergio Ramos was delighted with his goal at Barcelona on Saturday.

Ramos credits the late equaliser to hard work in training.

"The more I work the luckier I get. You always have to search for luck. Raul was always there due to his belief. Hope is the last thing you should lose and in these last few years there are these beautiful memories to show my child on video," he said.

"I am a defender and I must try to keep a clean sheet. If we can then take advantage of set pieces, one of the virtues of this team, then that's a bonus. Since I was a little boy on the beach, I was up against my father in the air, that's why I'm god in the air. If I scored again tomorrow in the 90th minute it would be amazing. The important thing is that the team wins and we continue going in this direction."
