Find out what the boss and the players had to say about the three points

Jose Copete, Javier Aguirre, Martin Valjent and Antonio Raíllo were on post-match media duties after our 1-0 victory against Girona. Find out what they had to say about our performance below:

José Copete

"Very happy. We had achieved our goal of reaching the cup final. We had to change our mindset.  It was a very difficult match and we pulled it off. We gave the fans three points.

"I was looking forward to scoring my goal this season and it came today. It was enough to get the three points."

Javier Aguirre

 "The first half was very good, in all senses. In the second half, as they were trailing and they attacked with more people which made it difficult for us.

"There are still many matches to go. Nobody can relax. We have a very tough match on Friday in Barcelona and let's see if we are able to continue this good streak."

Martin Valjent

"The team came out very focused and we were able to counteract the opponent. On the counter we were precise and from a set piece Copete's goal gave us the victory.

"It was a big surprise, I didn't know anything. My mother and grandmother are here so to be able to enjoy it with them is a gift and with these three points it has been a fantastic night.”

Antonio Raíllo

"The team has done its job. In the end, the 120 minutes at Anoeta were a bit noticeable, but I think the team has been very good."

"It will sound strange, but teams like Girona, Barcelona, Madrid or Real Sociedad, teams that have the ball, is when they benefit us the most. We are very good and very strong defensively."
