Cheryshev: "It was a fair result, but insufficient for us"

Denis Cheryshev returned to action after an injury in the game against Rayo Vallecano, coming on late as a substitute at Mestalla.
The Russian talked to VCF Media after the final whistle to talk about the 1-1 draw.
Reflecting on the result
It leaves a bad taste in our mouths, after the good game that we had against Real Sociedad. I think that we were motivated to take the win. We got ahead, but we weren't able to maintain the advantage and in the end they equalised.
A change in the second half
Maybe we took a step back in the second half, but then -as we needed to fight back and score- we took a step forward. They had several dangerous counter attacks. I think that the result is a fair one, but insufficient for us, because we want to win.
Returning from injury
The injury has dragged on a little. I was having discomfort for a while. Thankfully I'm ok now, and I am going to try to help the team however possible.
