Rafael Benitez looking for strong performance against Malmo

Real Madrid boss Rafael Benitez calls on his team to produce a strong performance against Malmo in the Champions League, despite the relative unimportance of the match.

Real Madrid boss Rafael Benitez has called on his team to pick up where they left off when they face Malmo in the Champions League on Tuesday.

It has been a difficult few weeks for the Spanish giants, but they put in a strong performance against Getafe at the weekend, with Karim Benzema, Cristiano Ronaldo and Gareth Bale all scoring in a 4-1 win.

Los Blancos will face Malmo in their final Group A match this week, but the Spanish team have already qualified for the knockout stages as winners of the section.

"To convince the fans that we're playing well, we need to play 90 minutes like the first half against Getafe and continue our run of victories against Malmo," Benitez told reporters. "We want to win and maintain our confidence. It's not an important game, but winning would be another important reinforcement."

The last-16 stage of the Champions League will take place in February.
