Niño: “There is very good and healthy competition up front”
The forward, who scored the 0–2 goal, reflected on Málaga CF’s first victory of 2026 in the mixed zone in Gijón. “Since the win, it’s easier to work, especially when you’re in a momentum like this,” he stated.
Match and competition
“We played a great match and earned three very important points away from home.”
“There is very good and healthy competition up front; we make it very difficult for the coach, and we have to keep going like this.”
Plan
“We followed a game plan that we worked on during the week, sticking to the plan set by the coach and the technical staff. And we stayed true to that plan.”
Ceuta, next rival
“Game by game, and the next one is at home. Since the win, it’s easier to work, especially when you’re in a momentum like this.”
His goal
“It was an action from Alfonso, we recovered the ball quickly, and Chupe finished well; I stayed alert to the rebound and got ahead of the centre-back. I changed the direction of the ball, and it went in.”
