Real Madrid narrowly defeated Real Sociedad in this round. After the game, Alonso attended a press conference and was asked multiple topics, including Heysen's key controversial red card.
About Wyson was sent off, Alonso's fierce reaction
Alonso: "I did not change my point after watching the video. I asked the referee, and he gave an explanation, but failed to convince me."
Alonso once tried to end the topic, but continued to say: "The referee explained to me his judgment basis after the game, and as I said, it failed to convince me. As he said, winning at Arnoeta is always very difficult, and today is even more difficult." Should Heisen be sent off with a red card?
Alonso: "I think it should be a yellow card. Militon is nearby and the ball is not fully controlled. I did not change my point after watching the video. I asked the referee, and he gave an explanation, but failed to convince me."
"I just stopped. This red card changed the situation of the game, and we ten of us fought for 60 minutes. We created opportunities and scored the second goal, and gained breathing space. The team showed sacrifice and made great efforts. It was always very difficult to win in Arnoeta, and today it was even more difficult."
Data will not lie. VAR has less intervention than ever
Alonso: "When there is a clear misjudgment, I hope VAR will intervene; if not, I don't think it should be involved. I don't want to discuss the referees only. We need to keep moving forward."
This red card may have changed the fate of the game...
Alonso: "It did have a big impact. We scored at least, but we had to be more defensive in the second half. There is no doubt that the penalty after that. Ten players did have a big impact."
"We have to learn to play more with less. This will happen this season. We did fall into a passive situation for some time in the second half, but finally adjusted back, which is a very positive signal."
How is Heysen's condition? This is his second time being sent off...Do you give him advice to avoid impulsiveness?
Alonso: "He breathed a sigh of relief. Obviously a little annoyed, but was relieved of the victory. Such fouls could have been avoided, and Oyasaval did not have a complete possession of the ball. His defensive movements really need improvement."
You mentioned the pride of the team. Today Asensio, Fran Garcia, and Alaba all appeared
Alonso: "Everyone has made contributions and everyone is ready. We need every player. The next step will be an intensive schedule. It is crucial to let every player feel his importance."
You communicated with the referee after the game, what did you talk about?
Alonso: "He explained to me his understanding of the red card penalty. His explanation failed to convince me. I also communicated with the referee last week about Arda. I always maintained respect, just to confirm whether these explanations are convincing."
How to evaluate the start of the victory of the four battles?
Alonso: "We continue to look forward. While we are happy, we cannot take everything for granted. There is room for improvement. We need to continue to build. The results are certainly gratifying, but today, with one less player fighting for a long time, the players showed a great spirit of sacrifice."
At the press conference yesterday, you also said that all the players returned healthy, and then Rudiger was injured. what does that mean? Will you consider youth training players?
Alonso: "I have always been paying attention to youth training and often communicate with Alvaro (Alberola), but we also have other players who can play in this position. Alaba, Asensio, Chuaméni, and even Carreras... Yesterday I said that all the players are back healthy, I really hope I haven't said this."
How to evaluate Real Sociedad and its coach Sergio Francisco? How do you view the event that pays homage to Toshak?
Alonso: "I watched all the games of Real Sociedad, and they deserve more points. I believe the team will get better and better. They have excellent players, and Sergio (Francisco) has a very high standard. He has the ability to lead the team up. As for the tribute event, Toshak's meaning is moving. It's related to me because he is the first person to give me the confidence to be a football player."
