The Málaga defender spoke to the media after #ADCeutaFCMálaga: “Now we have to think about the next game, at La Rosaleda, which always gives us that extra boost,” he said.
Analysis of the win
“Very happy. We knew it was going to be a match with difficult circumstances and an unusual away trip. In the end, with the support of our fans, we performed really well. The start went according to plan. In the second half they pushed us a bit, and I had the misfortune of scoring an own goal. But I don’t think we got nervous at all, we stuck to the game plan. And we secured a very important win.”
Tough ground
“I think we have to give this result the value it deserves. It’s difficult to win away from home, especially in a stadium like this one. Teams like Racing and Castellón have come here before and haven’t managed to take the three points. I think the team played a great match, beyond the win, it’s the way we achieved it. We should congratulate ourselves, be very happy, and enjoy it now.”
Enjoying the journey
“We are candidates to enjoy this victory, to believe we can beat Racing in the next match and win the ones that come after. If we are like we were today, with the dressing room and the fans united, we can face whatever comes our way. What matters is the journey and how we are achieving it, by enjoying the day-to-day process.”
“It will be seen at the end of matchday 42. We know the excitement that is being generated in the city and among the fans. We feel it too, and we want to aim for everything. But the most important thing is knowing where to take the next step. What we are achieving, we are doing with a clear plan and path, and we don’t want to stray from it. Now we have to think about the next game, at La Rosaleda, which always gives us that extra boost.”
Personal performance
“At first it’s hard to get back into the rhythm, but I think I’m getting there. I’m happy with my performance, even with the misfortune of the own goal. From that point on, we played well and controlled the game. When the team is doing well, I’ll do well too.”
Message to the fans
“Thank you very much. We hope we’ve made you smile and that you enjoyed the day. Have a safe trip back, and we need you, keep bringing that passion and energy for the upcoming matches.”
