Arda Güler scores his first goal for Real Madrid this season: Ancelotti evaluates Arda's goal (Arda Güler's goal against Girona)

In the 16th week of Spain's La Liga, Real Madrid visited Girona. The Whites left the match, in which Arda Güler also scored, with a 3-0 victory.

Arda Güler, who celebrated his first goal of the season in a Real Madrid jersey, made statements to the club's television channel after the match.

"I am very happy that we won and that I scored," said the Turkish footballer. "We were going through difficult days as a team. I really wanted to be able to help. The team put on a great performance. We ran a lot, we fought hard, and we are very happy to have achieved a clear victory."

Scoring his goal with an assist from his teammate Jude Bellingham, Arda said, "Bellingham gave me a very good assist and I scored. I really wanted to score because I hadn't managed to do that for Real Madrid this season yet. After Bellingham's goal, I wanted to score too, and I am very happy to have done it."

Stating that the love of the Real Madrid fans "gives him confidence," Arda added, "I try to do my best in every match to reciprocate their love. I try to give everything I have for Real Madrid."

Noting that the match they will play next week in the Champions League against Italy's Atalanta is "very important," Arda expressed that they have not had good results in recent Champions League matches but want to stop this bad run by winning the Atalanta match.

"SCORING A GOAL RELIEVED ARDA A LITTLE"

On the other hand, Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti also said that Arda Güler eased the pressure on himself with the goal he scored.

In the post-match press conference, Ancelotti said, "Arda made a magnificent entrance in the second half and scored a magnificent goal. He works hard, he runs a lot. The goal reduced the pressure on him a little bit. He is a young player with a lot of pressure around him, and this goal was good for him."

Arda, who scored his first goal of the season for Real Madrid, has increased his total goal count to 7 in two seasons with the white jersey.

The newspaper As wrote, "Arda Güler, what a crazy player you are. You scored a wonderful goal that only the chosen ones can reach. The Turkish footballer took advantage of Bellingham's great assist and sent the ball into the net after a perfect left-foot strike."
