Marco Asensio urge team-mates to remain focused after incredible season

Marcos Asensio has urged his team-mates to keep 'hunger to win' after an incredible season.
The 21-year-old score the winner in Real Madrid's 4-1 win over Juventus in the Champions League final.

"Ramos told me not to get used to it [winning the Champions League]; that it's no easy feat and that it took him a long time to win one," Asensio explained in an interview with Marca.

"A lot of Madrid legends have never won it and I've had the fortune to win it in my first year. It's fantastic.

"It seems easy, but to win three Champions Leagues in four years is really incredible. This team has an great generation [of players] full of ambition. We can't lose that hunger to win. That's the key.

“I don't usually get nervous on the pitch because playing football is what I've done all my life; before matches there is a little bit of pressure, but on the pitch you forget it all. You only think about playing football.

"When I go out onto the pitch I don't do so thinking about objectives or the need to win. I think about enjoying it, but from a point of view of responsibility and of giving your all."
