Javier Aguirre: We have recovered our identity

The boss reflected on our 1-0 win against Valencia CF

Javier Aguirre was on post-match media duties after we beat Valencia CF 1-0 thanks to Muriqi’s 14th goal of the season. Find out what the boss had to say below: 

Javier Aguirre

"The first half was difficult for us. We weren't good. We were nervous, or so it seemed to me. We did things we don't normally do, but in the second half it worked out better. We also changed the shape of the game. The goal helped us a lot and the team was better. 

"I was forced by circumstances to put Kang in Lee on the left wing but it was an experiment that didn't work out well. Fortunately, we were able to improve on that and it worked out well.

"We have eight points more than last year with two games to go. It gives a lot of joy to be able to link a third season in LaLiga.

"The fans have always shown me their affection. I'm very grateful for that.”
