Real Madrid coach Juande Ramos was delighted with their 2-0 win at Espanyol last night.
Guti and Raul struck for Real just days after their Champions League setback at home to Liverpool.
And Ramos acknowledged: "We've had a number of very good results, but in recent days had had a dark cloud over us. The result against Liverpool hurt us and our goal was to recover to normal, because form had been compromised.
"With this win, I expect the team to regain their happiness and success."
He added: "Guti covered every blade of grass. He was everywhere and his goal changed the game.
"I don't care what happens between Atletico and Barcelona. We can only worry about ourselves."
