Yunus Musah: "We have to learn from this, and make sure that it doesn't happen again"
Yunus Musah's first LaLiga goal of the season set Valencia CF on the right track against Atletico Madrid, but the team would go on to lose 3-2 in the capital. The USMNT international spoke to VCF Media after the game.
The performance
We were winning 0-2 after a good first half, and conceding three goals like that later on hurts a lot. We have to use this feeling for the next game. We have to learn from this.
Struggling with a high press
We weren't able to break through their press. We stayed in our own half, they continued to create chances. If you don't get out of the press, a team like them are going to create danger. In the end, we conceded three goals, which is too much.

His first league goal of the season
I was very happy to score. I knew that we weren't going to win just by scoring one goal. We had to keep scoring and, more than anything, not concede. We did that well in the first half, then you saw what happened in the second half.
Bouncing back
We have to use this feeling for the next game. We have to learn from this, and make sure that it doesn't happen again.
