Saúl Coco spoke at the press conference ahead of the match against Valencia CF, where he reflected on his participation in the Africa Cup of Nations: "The assessment is positive; we knew it would be a tough group, in fact, two of the finalists were in our group. We should be proud of the role we played." Regarding Valencia CF, the next opponent for the yellows: "It's going to be a very tough match; Valencia is a team that attacks spaces well. It will be an exciting and visually appealing match; we won't change what we've been doing so far. We'll try to dominate them to make them as uncomfortable as possible."
Here are some of his statements:
"The first experience in the Africa Cup of Nations was a big change; I came back as a different player, and it helped me improve."
"We've been calm the whole time; we believe a lot in what we do, and when the results go our way, you feel strengthened. Beyond that, we're not thinking about the points; we're going out to compete in every game without looking at the table."
"I'm happy; it's been a beautiful season. Overall, we're all at a very good level; it's my first experience in La Liga, and it's been good. Focusing on the positive and looking at what can be improved."
"We focus on playing; it's been an incredible season in every way. In the end, it's normal for there to be extracurricular noise because the team is doing things very well; we focus on the remaining 15 games."
"Competitiveness brings out our best version; it's very healthy, and we help each other because individual success is team success
