Copete: "We improved as the game went on"
The defender talks after the 1-1 draw on Matchday 14
Valencia CF defender, José Copete, evaluated the draw with Rayo Vallecano after the final whistle.
The result
“It's a bit bittersweet. We go into every game looking for the three points, and we improved as the game went on. The team recovered well from that goal we conceded from a set piece. I'm focusing on the positives. The team's attitude and willingness to win the game is a positive. There are things to improve, but it was important to get a point away from home and for the feeling to keep getting better.”
The second half
“In the second half, we fine-tuned some details with the coach, and that allowed us to be more fluid in attack and led to Diego's goal. The team stayed focused until the end, and that's important because these are points you remember later, and we have to continue on this upward trajectory and keep improving.”
