Atletico Madrid striker Luis Suarez: Very easy to score goals here

Atletico Madrid striker Luis Suarez says they'll all be up for the derby against Real Madrid.

The former Barcelona striker explained that all Atletico players are looking forward to facing Zinedine Zidane's team at the Estadio Wanda Metropolitano.

"All the games against Real Madrid are special, they are the ones that you want to play and demonstrate [what you can do in]," Suarez said in an interview for LaLiga.

"Many players are evaluated on their performances in these kind of games. They are games [you want] to play. We have to take revenge for the first leg and be able to show that we want to stay top of the league."

Suarez went on to break down the virtues that have helped him to become Atletico Madrid's top scorer this season in all competitions.

"My way of being has always been to be this competitive," Suarez added.

"I always want to show [what I can do], to improve, to show that I can jump over the next obstacle they put for me.

"I was always hard-headed and I am at a club where many people believe that it is difficult to score many goals, but with the quality of the players around me, it becomes easy."
