Agirrezabala: “We want to get the win and take a step forward against Atlético de Madrid”

Valencia goalkeeper Julen Agirrezabala was the guest on l’Informatiu de VCF Media Radio to talk about the upcoming match against Atlético de Madrid.

Match against Atlético de Madrid

The team is doing well, looking forward to Saturday’s match, which we know will be very demanding, and we want to get points in a stadium as difficult as the Riyadh Air Metropolitano. We want to play a good game and earn the three points. We’ll have to defend and attack very well. Every match is very challenging. It’s another opportunity to take a step forward. Statistics are meant to be broken.

Effectiveness in the penalty areas

Atlético de Madrid is a very competitive team; they have highly competitive and talented players in every line. We have to be very sharp in both areas, defend with great strength, and take advantage of any opportunities we have.

Match against Real Betis

That was a turning point; we performed well in all areas and were very competitive. The team responded very well, and that’s the path we need to continue on.

Away games

We’re not satisfied with the numbers; it’s been difficult, but we approach this match as a new opportunity to break the streak, and what better way than against a rival of this caliber.

LaLiga and Copa del Rey schedule

These are two very tough matches. Any opponent, any match is very tight, with few chances, and effectiveness in both areas determines the result. We want to convey the best possible feeling in the upcoming matches. We want to close 2025 in the best possible way.

Valencia CF

I’m happy to wear the Valencia CF shirt and represent a historic club and fanbase. I always try to do everything in my power to help the team achieve the best results, the three points in every match.
