Ramos: Real Madrid dominated Barcelona

Real Madrid defender Sergio Ramos says they "dominated" their 3-1 win over Barcelona.

Ramos enjoyed the comfortable victory.

"It's just three points but an encounter with Barcelona is different. We took a big step forward by winning and doing so in the manner we did, with a great deal of sacrifice and hard work. It was a Real Madrid that controlled possession a lot and read the phases of the game well. The scoreline is fair."

"We won with a lot of authority. Normally we use the counter-attacks to hurt a team like Barcelona but today we were able to move up into the opposition half and keep the ball, which is when they suffered most. It was a very big effort by the team and we're going home happy to have closed the gap and won in this way."
