Paulista: "We fought to the end"
Gabriel Paulista made his first start of the season for Valencia CF against Athletic Club. The Brazilian defender spoke to the media after the match and highlighted the work done by the team.
Personality
It's a pity. We played with a lot of personality, bringing the ball out from the back. We have to continue with this, keep training hard as we are doing every week, and continue growing. Today we showed that we are capable of facing anyone. We have to congratulate Athletic, who are a great team, and their fans. They have a very nice stadium and it is a pleasure to play here.

A close game
We weren't able to get the three points, even though we fought until the end. It was a pity about the last move by Marcos André's. Now we have a long week to rest, recover and do more in the next game to get the three points.
Sticking together for victory
Next Monday we have a difficult game against Atletico Madrid, but with the support of our fans I am sure that we will take the three points. We are going to fight, train, and watch the opposition to do what Gattuso asks of us. With this personality we will go very far.
