Real won in Mallorca thanks to Aurelien Tchouameni's strike.

Vazquez said: "There are many things to highlight. It was a very complicated game in which the team needed to play a different kind of football, to pick up loose balls, to fight for the game. In the end the team did a great job and got a well-deserved win.

"Our solidity is what keeps us at the top of the table. The team is having a great season. LaLiga is the competition of consistency and the team is showing that it is at a very good level. We knew how important it was to keep a clean sheet and that's what we've done."

On the trip to City for the second-leg of their Champions League quarterfinal, with the score locked at 3-3, Vazquez said: "We're doing very well. We're in a good moment, we're having a good final stretch of the season and the team is at a great level both collectively and individually.

"Almost all the players are performing wonderfully and we're going into Wednesday with a great desire to win the game, to get through the tie and go through to the semis, and to win the Champions League as well."
