Hugo Duro: The effort was incredible and there is little to criticise the team"

Valencia CF striker, Hugo Duro shared his thoughts on the 1-1 draw at the Estadi Mallorca Son Moix on Matchday 9 of LaLiga EA Sports in Majorca.   

big effort

There's little to say to the team. We need a little more success bringing the ball out since we could have had a few more opportunities. The effort was incredible and there is little to criticise.

Just like last week we had to look at many things, I think this weekend nothing can be said against us, especially in terms of our effort.

A good reaction

After three games without winning and starting the match like this, it is not easy to react as we did. The team's play was good, especially in the first half. In the second there was more fatigue and I think we made more mistakes on an individual level that weighed on us and meant we weren't able to start moves well and attack well. We have to correct that, which is also the result of fatigue. On a collective level, I am happy.

The possible penalty

Pepelu crossed and I was going for the ball. I was tussling, I think with Jaume, and there was a moment in which he grabbed me. He didn't look at the ball, his back was turned, and he fell on top of me. Also, I don't know if he reached the ball.

I don't think it took them 30 seconds to review it. People have shown me an image and I think that they have given softer penalties against us, but we are not going to talk about that either. Now, it's time to rest and prepare for the next game to win in front of the fans at home.

Going for the victory at Mestalla

Getting points is always important and even more so away from home. We want to win again and we are going to have the fans at Mestalla. We are going to give everything to prepare for the game as best as possible and to get players back. We were a little short today.

Those who are participating, both from the first team and the reserve team, are helping a lot. I am happy with the attitude of the entire team.
