Sevilla was very happy after adding the three points. “I think we played a very complete match. It is true that they had a couple of very clear chances in the first half but we also had four or five. Then, in the second half, the second goal came, the one for peace of mind, and we finished with the game quite controlled, ”he said.
Villarreal B’s visit was quite complicated. In fact, the Alavés coach, Luis García Plaza, had warned that it was the most complicated duel among all those that remain to be played in the first round and before the break. Salva Sevilla commented that “we knew it would be a very difficult game, against a great opponent. All subsidiaries create problems for you but it is something we already knew”.
The fans did not stop cheering despite being a cold afternoon, with some 13,000 spectators in the stands. The club is working hard to fill the field and is sending free tickets to season ticket holders who have not renewed so they can re-enroll. “It’s incredible, there is a great communion in this team and that is essential to achieve the goal. Our fans are a great asset, you can’t stop running when you see how they cheer you on”, he explained.
Friday’s clash against Granada at the Nuevo Los Cármenes is first class. Aitor Karanka, a youth squad player from Alava, is no longer on his bench, but it is another club that has been relegated from the First Division. Salva Sevilla, Andalusian, knows perfectly the field, the entity and his great team. But he is confident. “Outside of Vitoria we are also being a very reliable team and our idea is to travel there to add again”, he added.
From a personal point of view, it’s been a great season for the midfielder. He was the first summer signing of Luis García Plaza and chains titles every day. “It is to be very happy, I notice the affection of the people at all times. I play a lot of minutes and I’m really enjoying it. The important thing is that the team keep adding to try to achieve the objective. I will help from where I have to do it, ”he sentenced.
