Julen Lopetegui has declared himself "satisfied" with the manner of Real Madrid's 2-0 win over Getafe in his first La Liga game in charge.
The 51-year-old saw his side earn a straightforward victory with a goal either side of half time from Dani Carvajal and Gareth Bale, four days on from their UEFA Super Cup loss at the hands of Atletico Madrid.
Ex-Spain boss Lopetegui, appointed as Zinedine Zidane's successor in June, believes that his side deserve credit for the manner in which they overcame a defensively-solid Getafe.
"We're satisfied with the win and happy because the team did a lot right," he told reporters after the match. "There's still room for improvement at this stage of the season, as with all teams.
"We played with intensity, played as a team and scored two goals against a side who had the third-best defensive record last season and who came here and made things difficult."
Madrid travel to Girona in six days' time for their next league outing.
