The midfielder looks at the 2-0 triumph

Valencia CF beat Athletic Club at Mestalla on Matchday 5, and Javi Guerra talked to the media after the game to review the victory.

An important victory

It was a very important victory because we were coming off a painful result and had to stand back up and demonstrate the team's identity.

Tough opposition

Athletic are a great side; they're in the Champions League. It was a demanding test, and the team more than passed it.

Mestalla

I always say it: We have the best fans. They demand a lot from us, but when the team are going forward, they push us on. The fans are the ones who drive us the most. The results at Mestalla make that clear.

His partnership with Santamaría

If you get goals and assists, it all contributes to the team and is important.

A busy week

We have to turn our attention to the next game already, recover and try to take points away from home.
