“Away from home we have to take a step forward if we want to fight for LaLiga”

Césr Azpilicueta addressed the media after the narrow victory over Sevilla.

Many celebrated victories

“It’s a very important game, we left with a bad taste in our mouths against Getafe. It’s a special day for everyone, for the fans it’s a day before Christmas. “We want to give them back the efforts they make every day.”

Table situation

“Obviously football is emotional, when you win, everything is closer. We all want to arrive with more points. Starting in January, a good match is coming. It depends on us, if we can be the top. The teams at the top are doing very well. Our next rival is Girona, who are at the top.”

celebration of Simeone

“It was a special day for Cholo, 12 years after his arrival. The team makes a significant effort to play every three days. Today is an important game, the last two we have been with ten players. We keep a clean sheet. I arrived this year but I know that the situation that the team found itself on the return from the World Cup is complicated, we want to close the year with success.

Options to fight for LaLiga

“Obviously there are opponents ahead of us. But it depends on what we do. It is clear that we are not achieving results away from home, if we start to improve that. Away from home we have to take a step forward if we want to fight for LaLiga, and maintain what we are doing at home, which is not easy.

Soyuncu’s expulsion

“They are obviously game situations, when you are left out of the ten you suffer. We were one short for most of the match. We haven’t talked about that yet, but it’s obviously something to consider. Now that’s the card for Çaglar, who is annoyed, we made a double effort, that’s Atleti fighting until the end. Hopefully we can fight for titles this season.”
