Toni Kroos was happy to make a winning debut for Real Madrid last night.
Kroos started in the 2-0 win over Cordoba.
"This victory is important, the first match of the league is always tough and we managed to win. I felt very comfortable on the pitch," said the German.
"We've had a series of very intense matches. Now we have a week to prepare for the next one. The visit to Real Sociedad will be difficult but we will go all out for victory in the Anoeta."
