Isco: this season we are not weaker

Despite the fact that Madrid's "Real" extended their catastrophic season yesterday, attacking midfielder Isco believes that the UEFA Champions League winners are still as strong as ever.

The "Royal" club missed the opportunity to reduce the gap from the leader "Barcelona" and played a draw with Bilbao "Athletic."

In these matches, the captain of the capital's footballers Sergio Ramos was sent off the field, while Toni Kroos and Cristiano Ronaldo wasted several opportunities.

"To say that the team is weaker when results don't come is somewhat of a misuse of the situation," Isco said.

"We are just as competitive as last year, but our full squad couldn't play due to injuries and that's important."

After yesterday's result, "Real" dropped to fourth place in the Spanish championship.
