Corberán: “We approach the Copa del Rey with enthusiasm, responsibility and seriousness”
The Valencia CF coach’s press conference for the Copa del Rey
Carlos Soler gave his verdict after the duel against Real Betis at Mestalla. The captain was honest about the showing given by the team.
A better Betis
I think the defeat is fair, but we didn't deserve it to be so heavy. Their last two goals came on counterattacks when we were pushing. We weren't good offensively or defensively. Betis were better than us today. We just have to accept it and focus on the two remaining games.
An even game
The first half was evenly matched. We had a clear chance at the end. The second was the same, until they made it 0-1. After that, we pushed and we had chances. The goal to make it 0-2 ended the game.

Fighting to the end
We have to try to fight in the last two games, to try to finish the season with the best possible feeling.
Thanks to the fans
We have to thank the fans who have come out today for their support. We hope that they will also come here against Celta and cheer us on.
