Real Madrid faces the big test to test its growth: the modern classic against Barcelona (8:00 p.m., Dazn). With an improved and expanded squad, Alberto Toril’s team seeks to compete against the all-powerful Barça team, which has won its sixteen previous matches. One of the new faces in the Madrid team is Alba Redondo (Albacete, 1996). The forward fulfilled her dream of wearing white and, in her first season, she is confident of going far in the Champions League and being able to win a title. About all this, in addition to her return to the Spanish team, she chats with ABC La Mancha.

Your own self-demand concentrates you to be able to take something to Spain, to be able to give them a medal, in this case an Olympic one. At that moment, the side of the coin was not in our favor, at that moment fate decided that we would not return with anything. It is a lesson from which we learn a lot and that this team still has a lot of war to fight. Another super exciting season has just started so we can prepare for what lies at the end of the season, which is a Euro Cup.—How did it feel to be left out of the main list and go as a reserve?—I’m not going to deny that it’s not It was nice, it was hard. In the end you prepare yourself to be able to try to be there and help your colleagues. Then, on a rational level, over time, I said well, I’m here to help with whatever. The coach wants me as a reserve, if she needed me within the eighteen hours in case something happened to a player, God forbid, because here I am prepared and that’s how I took it.—What learning have they learned?—We learn that not always The one who plays the best wins. There are many times we must also have some correct aim, be much finer. We have many learnings not only on a sporting level, but also on a personal level. Over time we will be much better. I am sure that we will give many more joys. Time will tell.—The main objective is the Eurocup next summer. What needs to change to see the team that seemed invincible a few months ago again?—I don’t think anything needs to change, just continue playing as we have been doing, with full confidence in it. The players who are here are because the coach trusts them and each player has to give their best in order to win.—What did your signing for Madrid mean?—It was like a dream. Unfortunately, when you are little there are only men’s clubs and in my time there were Barça and Real Madrid. In my house we have always been Real Madrid fans, my father has always instilled that in me. It was a beautiful dream and above all, an exciting new challenge, because not all players can wear the Real Madrid shirt. It was a pride not only to dress her, but to be able to make my father proud. Because they follow me, they are proud of me, but I also want to reward them in the best way. How nice that your daughter can wear the Real Madrid shirt and be able to wear it for a few seasons.—How is her adaptation?—Well, she’s going from strength to strength. I am of the opinion that Rome was not built in a day and I am happy for the change I have made. —What did that first goal against Sporting mean to you?—It was super special, because it is the first goal of the season for me, it is the first goal with this shirt and it meant a lot. At that moment you remember many people, but there was a super special person in the stands for me who was my father. As soon as they told me that my father started crying, I said I can’t believe it, this man is so sensitive. But super happy.—As with every goal she scores, she remembered her uncle (who died in the Yak-42 accident in 2003).—Because of the tattoo I have in memory of my uncle. My uncle was very fond of Barça, but here there are no colors nor are there teams, here the blood, the family, provides. I know that he would have worn the Real Madrid shirt for being who I am and for being where I was, especially because it was me.—What objective does Madrid have this season?—Improve last year’s numbers above all. , and, above all, give some joy to Real Madrid fans with some title.—Should they take a step forward in the Champions League?—More than taking steps… To take big steps you must first come to an agreement as a team. So we have to know each other, we have to adapt to all the players. First we have to create the path to take big steps and I know from the games we have been playing in the Champions League that we are going to go quite far. Because the level there is is very high and the players are going to give three hundred percent, whoever it is, whoever comes out.—Does the club give the importance it deserves to the women’s section?—Yes. I can give you where I am from my perspective. I’ve been alone for two months, so those who have been alone for three years or more can answer that better. But of course it is. The women’s team feels good, we feel loved. I’ve been here for two months and that’s what I feel. The board is always attentive and that is what I see.
