Gayà: "We have to travel to Villarreal without thinking about the final"

The captain gives a frank assessment of the loss to Osasuna

José Luis Gayà analysed Valencia CF's game against CA Osasuna on LaLiga Matchday 32, holding nothing back and speaking about controversial moves as well.

Refereeing decisions

They have to alert the referee to a very clear penalty. The referee saw it and didn't want to call it. We will fight against everything and move on from this.

A possible penalty

It's the same as always. The referee, at the halftime break, told us that if he had called the penalty on Bryan, it would have been overturned by VAR because there was no contact. We can't say anything to them either, because they give you a yellow card like I got at the end of the game. They do what they want.

Keeping on fighting

The European spots are slipping away from us, and it is not what we wanted. We didn't want to risk everything in the final, and wanted to be closer to Europe through the league. However, the team will keep fighting until the end.

Going for the win in Villarreal

We have to travel to Villarreal without thinking about the final, although it seems crazy to me that we have to play another game, four days before the final. We should really be focused on such an important game from now on, and I think that it's crazy both for us and for Betis. In the end, we are professionals and we must focus on each game. The next one up is against Villarreal, and we have to go out there to win.
