The defender talks to VCF Media

Valencia CF defender Unai Núñez analysed the 0-2 win over Levante UD following the final whistle.

The win

"I was eager to celebrate my first victory as a Valencia CF player and very happy to do it in a derby.”


The fans

“Today it was clear they are behind us; a lot of people came out to watch the game, and this victory is for them and for the team, who always work so hard.”

A clean sheet

“It’s very rewarding for the defenders, but this isn’t just about the defenders, it’s about the whole team. We all worked hard. Today, we were clinical and took our chances.”

The full-back position

“I’m ready to play wherever the manager asks me to play. If he puts me at full-back, then I’ll play full-back; if it's at centre-back, then I'll play at centre-back; and if he puts me up front, then I'll go up front. I’m going to try to contribute as much as possible to the team and work hard every day.”

The game against Villarreal CF

“It’s another derby. It's a a very exciting fixture, and we have to work hard to bring the three points home. They are a good team, but so are we.”
