Diego Lopez excited by Real Madrid chance

Goalkeeper Diego Lopez says he's ready to step in for Real Madrid against Racing Santander this week.
 
Lopez will replace Iker Casillas, who is suspended after being sent-off in Sunday's 1-0 win at Osasuna. The reserve keeper said: "The match will be a great occasion for me, it will be very special."

"We are gambling a lot and anything that can help the team is important. From now on we cannot fail. We have three genuine finals left and if we play with the same form, attitude and grit as we did in Pamplona, we will obtain our objective."
