Rondón: "Concentrating on us as a team is what we need to do”
Venezuelan MCF striker, Salomón Rondón, spoke to the media on Wednesday afternoon in La Rosaleda’s press room
Statements from Rondón
Important match “We know we played a good match in Madrid, but now we face Rayo Vallecano, who are having a great season. We have to give it our all in order to take away the three points from this home game. It’s an important week, with another match against Espanyol, but for now we’re concentrating on Rayo Vallecano, earning the points and playing a great game”.
Rayo “They’re a team that keep growing and performing well, they’ve just gained three points at home against Betis, but we need to think about ourselves first and improve on mistakes we’ve made. Five home wins on the run? It’d be amazing to keep making history with the Club, but the most important thing is to get the three points and keep moving forward”.
Toulalan’s injury “Jeremy is a great player, and we hope he recovers quickly. His absence is important, but we have enough great players to overcome this. This is what happens in football, and the team wishes him well”.
Euphoria for the fans “The emotion and euphoria has to remain with the fans. They’re the ones who need to be celebrating, we need to keep working. We need to keep playing well and gaining points. There’s still a long way to go, with ten matches left to play. We need to concentrate on us as a team for the remainder of the season”.
Different match “Every match is different. They played very well there – Vallecas - and got the three points. Tomorrow is important for us, three points will move us further up the table”.
