Real Betis boss Rubi proud of victory over Real Madrid

Real Betis boss Rubi isn't getting carried away after Sunday's shock defeat of Real Madrid.

Betis outclassed Real Madrid on the day thanks to goals from Sidnei and Cristian Tello.

"[It's more than three points] for me and for Betis because we've had a bad run and you don't beat the league leaders every day," Rubi said.

"Today is a very happy day, the team deserved it.

"We suffered at the end, but the rest of the game was deserved.

"You always try to help the team.

"We deserved a lot more from recent games and we didn't have the luck to win them.

"There are days when your changes come off and others not; it doesn't depend on the coach.

"Today we had a perfect game where everything we'd planned came off.

"It was a shame to go into half-time level, which happened for us against Barcelona.

"We try to do the best possible in each game, with lots of hours of dedication and I'm very calm in that sense."
