"We want to reach as far as possible in the Cup"
Pape Diop considers that it is important to start strong from the beginning to achieve the classification
Having overcome the derby against FC Barcelona, the blue-and-white team focuses only on the Spanish Cup match against Alcorcón. Midfielder Pape Diop believes it is important to start strong from the beggining. "Playing at home you have to come out strong. We are going to face a team that will make it complicated even though they play in the second division. We want to dismiss the year with a victory to go on holiday with a sweet taste", said Diop.
The Senegalese midfielder, who has explained that Quique Sánchez Flores has not given clues about the eleven, has remarked that the Cup "is a good opportunity for the group because we all have options to play more minutes. It would be very good to continue in the Cup it is very important for the team. We want to make the best possible season and get as far as possible in this competition".
Finally, on his personal situation, commented that "I have played less than last year and previous years. In a sports career these things can happen. You play less, but you do not stop being important for the team, to be professional and always try to give everything for the team”.
