Özkacar: "I'm happy to have debuted"
Cenk Özkacar made his debut for Valencia CF against RCD Mallorca, although he was unable to celebrate the occasion with a victory. After the match, the central defender talked about the match with VCF MEDIA.
Making his debut
“It's a bit difficult after six months without playing an official match, but I'm very happy to have debuted at Mestalla with the fans here. The fans have been incredible, as always. I wanted to win, but it was not possible. I'm happy to have debuted."
The cut he received
"It's nothing. It's normal for defenders. Today was a little bit difficult. In LaLiga you play with passion and going out without warming up was tricky, but I wanted to give everything for the team. I'm sorry that we couldn't win."
The next match against FC Barcelona
“We want to beat FC Barcelona because we need it. We need more points. We will keep working and we will see what happens next week."
