Setién also underlined the need to find a positive stimulus to break the bad dynamic of results: “We got through the game with suffering. They compromised us, but I’m happy with the win, because it allows us to change the dynamic and see if we are now capable of getting on a new positive streak. We want to look to the future with optimism.”

Setién also praised the great performance of Ramón Terrats, who was making his LaLiga debut for Villarreal: “Ramón Terrats had a great game. He has a lot of flair for football, he plays very well in that midfield position. It was a difficult game because of the background we had and he had a lot of personality. He’s a very good player.”
