Pepelu: "It's a very tough defeat"
The goalscorer reflects on the 4-1 loss
Valencia CF midfielder Pepelu talked after the game against Celta Vigo in Galicia.
The performance
“It’s a very tough defeat because of what we saw in the match. Those two late goals really inflated the scoreline and they hurt us. Once again, we could have improved in terms of the details we’ve discussed before. The team are proactive and we try hard, but those details are getting the better of us. We have to work on them more and be better; we can’t dwell on the past now, but we can’t afford to let the mistakes continue.”
The upcoming games
“We have to keep going. Our strength is that we are a team. Today, the approach was good, but the details went Celta Vigo's way. However, we can't let our guard down and concede four at the end of the game.”
Elche CF
“We have to look at what's ahead,. We are playing a home game next and we have to step up, because we cannot allow this to happen.”
