The coach always wants the best for me and the team. My wife also wanted what was best for me and I couldn't argue who was right. There are two parties I have defended for what I love more than anything else: the coach for the team and my wife for me. The important thing is that the coach and I are honest and truthful. We talked and that was it. I did not get angry with my wife or the coach. We have to continue training and be a reference for the team.”

He concluded: “Revenge against Barcelona after the loss in La Liga: “It was a difficult time. It was difficult to sleep.” “In the first half we had chances to score a goal and this gives us confidence. They showed better in the second half and this hurt us.
