Marcelo happy working hard for Real Madrid boss Mourinho

Marcelo is happy that Real Madrid coach Jose Mourinho is recognising his efforts.

Mourinho has praised the Brazilian wing-back for the way he has performed this season.

"I work hard as Mourinho wants me and I still do so in each workout," said Marcelo. "I said weeks ago that every workout with Mourinho is like a battle."

"But I also have to show this to my coach on the pitch."
