Jose Mourinho was not satisfied with Madrid's game in the first match of the Spanish Championship. The country's champions took the lead in front of their own fans after Gonzalo Higuain's goal, but later allowed the opponents to take the initiative and paid dearly for it: Jonas equalized. Later, the guests were saved by the excellent play of goalkeeper Diego Alves, but the game ended in a draw. "I expect more from my team. Last year, another Valencia goalkeeper, Vicente Guaita, played excellently; now it's Alves. The match was not great, but we did enough to win," Mourinho said. "Alves played excellently and stopped several impressive shots. But if we had played better, there would have been even more opportunities. We always want to win – a draw is not a satisfactory result. We couldn't afford to lose because the opponents didn't create many chances near our goal." On Thursday, football fans are waiting for the first "El Clasico": "Real" will play against "Barcelona" in the Spanish Super Cup.
