Duro: "There was a clear penalty"
Hugo Duro pulled no punches in his assessment of the 1-1 draw with Athletic Club in the Copa del Rey, expressing that he felt Valencia CF should have been awarded a penalty during the game.
A good result
"It's clear that a draw here, where they have beaten FC Barcelona, Real Madrid and many other teams, is a good result. I leave here with a good feeling, and maybe even bittersweet because we didn't score the second goal. There was a pass from José that I just missed, a shot by Diakhaby, and a clear penalty, as we saw. It's a good result, and the second leg is at home. However, the feeling I have is difficult to describe."
The penalty appeal
"I will have to see the replay of the penalty, because I don't understand it. We've seen penalties given for less. Cádiz had two laughable ones given. I was hauled down by a defender, and he even fell when he was fouling me. I will have to see the footage."
Gunning for the final
"We want two more games in this competition. The goal was down to teamwork. It was a good cross, a good shot and it's a team goal. We will continue like this and see if we can get into the final."
The game against Alavés
"We're already thinking about Alavés. We will put the Copa del Rey on hold until March 2nd. Now it's time to focus on LaLiga. We want to achieve a good result against Alavés. It's a difficult stadium but we're going to try to win there."
