Corberán: "The fans want to see a committed and dedicated team, and that's what they’ll get"
The Valencia CF coach speaks ahead of the match against Real Madrid CF
Omar Alderete marked his debut for Valencia CF with a victory at Mestalla, and the Paraguayan expressed his delight with the win against Getafe in a post-match interview with VCF Media.
"I think that we put in an incredible effort. It isn't easy when you go a man down so early. I think that it changed the entire game. It makes it more difficult and we had to hold back and shut things down a little more. The team were able to win the game anyway; scoring the goal quickly helped our morale," he explained, having played a big part in shutting out persistent Getafe attacks.
"It's always important to keep a clean sheet, and work on attacking from there. I think that we have very good players up top, who at any moment can score a goal or create a dangerous situation."
"Today Gabriel Paulista and I had a tough job to do, because the team played a little further back after the sending off. We had to be very focused and shut them down. I felt very good. I had things to improve, like anybody, and I'm sure that we'll work on this during the week."
The LaLiga opener was a second game at Mestalla for the centre back, who played in the Trofeo Naranja in front of fans just a fortnight ago. Alderete expressed the importance the supporters played in the victory.
"It was very nice to have the fans there. After 1.5 years of the pandemic, I think that with over 10,000 here you could feel the influence of the fans. It's really nice to compete like this, and I hope that more people can come along shortly."
