Real Madrid will travel to Abanca-Balaidos this Friday evening to take on Celta Vigo in a crucial La Liga matchup.
Los Blancos are currently facing challenges, having lost their last two league games to Osasuna (2-1) and Getafe (1-0).
Coach Arbeloa, who replaced Xabi Alonso in mid-January, has found it difficult to turn things around. He noted: “The only way to win with this badge is with effort, sacrifice and consistency.”
Madrid is in second place with 60 points after 26 games. With Barcelona four points ahead, another loss could seriously impact their title hopes.
