Duro: "The team are responding now"

The striker talks after a 1-0 win over Osasuna

An emotional Hugo Duro spoke to VCF Media at the conclusion of the game vs. CA Osasuna.

Mestalla's role

Matches at Mestalla are vital if we want to achieve our objective. The fans have been excellent this year, despite the difficulties. We are responding to that

Using intensity

If we want to win games, we have to be more intense than the opposition. We are doing that and the results are showing. We won 1-0 against an Osasuna side who are in the Copa del Rey semifinals, near the top of the table, and we practically didn't allow them a chance. That speaks well of the team's work and of the effort, and we must continue like this.

United for victory

If we want to stay up, Mestalla is 80% of that. We know the importance of Mestalla. The team are responding now, suffering and getting the victories.

The fans 

I thank them for everything they've done since I came here. We will keep working.
