“Marseille are a good team, which we have already seen. We set up the game as if it were an official match, and a I think that we gave a good fight to a great team.”

His first unofficial goal for Valencia CF

“I'm happy to have scored my first goal, but I think that takes a back seat for now, as the work done by the team is the most important thing and we should focus on that.”

"During training you start to build your relationship with your teammates and get a feel for how they play. Luís Rioja understood that I was going to stay back, he cut the ball back to me well and it ended up with a goal."
