Mestalla brimming with emotions running high
Relive the emotional events that took place in the run-up to Valencia CF-Real Betis to pay tribute to the victims and those affected by the tragic flash floods
The Brazilian centre-back highlighted the importance of the point achieved against a top-of-the-table opposition.
Valuable draw
We have to celebrate this point, a valuable point. We played against a very good team, who have been playing in the Champions League for a few games. We started off with a not-very-good first half. We struggled to get the ball out. And in the second half, we changed and we were more aggressive and had more quality on the ball. We claimed a very valuable point.
Better at Mestalla
We came into the game off the back of a negative result. Today we showed that we are capable of being higher up and the capacity we have, the important players we have, the youth players we have, especially Diego, who has played very well in the last two games. Also, Javi Guerra, who started today for the first time, and has shown an impressive character. We conceded the goal, but we looked for the equaliser calmly and then the three points. Playing at home, with the help of our fans, it was a very different game to away. They give us a lot. We have to celebrate this point. In this final stretch, we have to celebrate every point.
Support from the fanbase
I'm always very grateful for their support, especially in away games. They give us a lot. But we have to give a lot more on the pitch and we have to do whatever it takes. I'm sure we're going to pull it off.
