D. Larrubia: “We have to keep enjoying ourselves without setting targets”
The Malaguista forward, who scored the team’s first goal in #MálagaHuesca, also featured after the match. “I’m full of confidence; I want to keep improving and contributing to the team,” he said.
5-3
“We didn’t manage to close out the game the way we wanted, and we had to suffer a bit. Chupe played well, eager to make up for earlier, scored both chances he had, and we got the three points we wanted.”
Enjoying it
“Now we just keep enjoying ourselves, we’ve achieved that first objective. From here on, no setting strict targets, we’re young, and not reaching them could seem like a failure, but it doesn’t have to be. We have to enjoy the good football we’re playing, let the fans enjoy it, and keep going like this.”
Details
“Football is all about the details. I remember the coach’s first match against Mirandés, if we hadn’t scored, it would have been a completely different story. We needed results, which have come at just the right time, and now we feel unbeatable on the pitch.”
9 goals
“I hope not to get stuck at this number, I want to keep improving and contributing to the team. Having that hunger makes me a top-level player, that’s the mentality we need, and I want to keep helping the team.”
The plan
“The message was that the match isn’t over until the referee blows the final whistle. Even when things get tough, we have to keep doing what we need to and stick to the plan. No relaxing, because the match lasted 116 minutes.”
Leap in numbers
“I’m close, almost there. At the start of the season, I wanted to make that jump in stats, and now I feel extremely confident. Last year, this shot might have ended up in the upper stands. We have to take advantage of it.”
Fans
“We go into every match to win and play our football. We’re going to Cádiz aiming to win, and there will be a huge turnout of supporters. They can stay calm, we’re ready to win and celebrate with them.”
Firepower
“I knew I could reach this level this year, I hope it’s not my peak and that I can keep going. In the second half, I touched the ball few times, we have many talented players who will make an impact. We have a team with a lot of firepower up front, and it causes a lot of damage to our rivals.”
