Real Madrid defender Marcelo has urged his teammates to continue their winning streak for the remainder of the season.

The Brazilian full-back was speaking following his side's 2-1 away victory over Celta Vigo in La Liga on Sunday that saw them climb up to second in the table.

"Today we were able to win with a lot of work," he told reporters. "From the beginning it was a hard game, but we struggled and fought.

"We did very well and things worked out. We have improved, it's true, we are in a winning streak and we want to keep it up until the end of the season."

Madrid have reached the final of the Copa del Rey and the Champions League quarter-finals this season.
