Real Madrid coach Schuster: Things are getting difficult

Real Madrid coach Bernd Schuster conceded they're struggling after suffering a third consecutive defeat to Getafe last night.

Ikechukwu Uche struck for Getafe in a play which was sparked after Real's players were celebrating a goal that had been ruled out by the match officials.

Schuster said: "We have lost by an isolated play. We have celebrated a goal that was ruled out, Getafe reacted very quickly and with their first shot of the game they produced goal and that did much damage."

"The truth is that the things are becoming very difficult. We are finding problems that we have not had before."

"This has never happened to me before."

"Simply we are failing to convert our chances. We are defending far better than our opponents, always being superior and dominating, but with the small details we are losing to our opponents."

"I cannot look to the future. The future is Huelva. It is necessary to motivate ourselves again. We must demonstrate that we are a team at the good moments and now. The dressing room is motivated and I do not have any doubts that we are going to return very quickly to winning ways."
