- I think we did everything not to lose. We played against a very good and experienced team, they know how to play matches like this. We are not happy with losing, but we did all we could. You saw that we were tied, Markos had a good opportunity, but that's football - said Matic to the reporters after the match.
Premier league is starting next weekend.
- We have to rest, we are playing an important game against West Ham. As you know, winning the Premier League is our primary goal - added Matic, the only player of Manchester United who stopped in mix zone to give a statement.

- My conscience won't let me, the coach is here to do that, I am just a part of the team and I am sure everybody gave their best.
At the end, he was asked how hard was it for him to play against Luka Modric and the midfield of Real.
- Great player, and it's very hard to play against him - Matic briefly commented before the security almost pushed him to start going.
