The Sevilla coach, José Luis Mendilíbar, appreciated that this Sunday’s victory against Valencia meant moving away from the relegation zone and added that, although it was not a definitive step, it was a big step to prove permanence.
“I hope that this victory allows us to play more calmly and compete as we compete, but with a little football and not having oppressive moments like the first half,” he explained in a press conference.
Mendilíbar was calm after adding the three points to Mestalla as he explained that “the two teams that are on the edge of relegation are the losers and it gives you life and peace of mind, we can’t sleep, we have to keep improving. In front of the goal we are right, we will go game by game and compete in better conditions”.
Finally, the Sevilla coach said he does not understand how VAR works after the ‘controversial’ arbitration of the match. “I still don’t understand VAR. I said it when it came out and I still think the same. I think the events of these matches prove me right, they don’t make referees look good and are embarrassing. This caused a lot of doubt for them. Also, I have no idea when it’s a hand and when it’s not,” he concluded.
