Fight for each point
Diego López emphasizes that the team must show the best image to win Villarreal
Diego Lopez faces this Sunday, against Villarreal, a match against a team in which he spent five seasons, in which he lived great moments and which keeps "great memories." But, above all, he emphasizes that "it will be an important match for us".
He said that in his long professional career he has always been "looking at the top of the classification", but that does not stop him from arguing that "we keep thinking about the idea of adding and hooking to the top of the standings and draw more points to the lower area. In the second round all teams tighten a lot and to get a point you have to fight a lot. Historically the three below tend to get many points in the second round so we have to think about adding the three points of each game. "
He points out that it is not clear that the Europa League match can take its toll on Villarreal and said that "we are going to find a very strong team at a difficult time. It will be a disputed match and our intention is to tighten them to the maximum so that they notice that they have played yesterday. We have to show our best weapons to break them".
He said that he does not forget the game against Celta and does not take away "the positive part he had. We still had to specify and we did it the other day. We arrived twice and we made two goals. I hope other matches have more chances. We knew how to counteract a great rival and we took a point in a complicated field. We left angry for the game, but right now I do not see the difference with the third-to-last classified or the one with the top ones. I focus on competing, on being at the maximum in every game and every Sunday is a new opportunity. As of now there are very difficult matches for everyone, but I insist that in this second round different results will be seen. We have to maintain confidence and believe in our work. We have to compete to the maximum to get something positive".
