Real Madrid attacker Marco Asensio was happy to score in victory over Celta Vigo.

Asensio started and scored in the 2-0 win.

He later said: "I'm getting opportunities and I'm happy and enjoying it a lot. I'm playing consistently and that also helps a lot for my confidence. You can see the day-to-day work on the pitch and the passion of the Madrid supporters certainly helps. I'm delighted and eager to keep this form up.

“The coach has put his faith in me and I'm making the most of the minutes I'm getting. I hope I can carry on like this because I enjoy being on the pitch. I'm pleased that things are coming off.

“The coach wants us to be dynamic on the pitch and switch positions a lot. I like to play between the lines and that's where I do the most damage. Between Fede, myself and the full-back, Nacho today, we changed the positions a lot to prevent the defenders from finding a reference point. That helps the team to move and to exploit the spaces.

The move for the goal

“The pitch wasn't great, and I knew I had to connect cleanly with the ball. I didn't want to sky it, so I hit it down and it bounced in."
