Javier Aguirre: I congratulated the players

The boss reflected on our three points against Cádiz

Javier Aguirre shared his thoughts with the media after our 1-0 win against Cádiz CF. Pablo Maffeo scored the only goal of the game in the first half to ensure we took another step towards safety. Find out what the boss had to say below:  

"We still have a long way to go. It is true that 44 points are very good, it is the truth. But we still don't have it mathematically secured, so I am cautious. We still have four matches in which we will have to get a few more points to then be able to enjoy ourselves.

"I had already said in the preview that it was going to be a match with a lot of long balls, a lot of second plays and few goals. That's how it was. We were very good in defence and we executed the counterattacks well. We lacked perhaps in the final third, to make better decisions.

"We have four players down in defence. And Denis had a lot of minutes on him. The logic was Baba as a central defender and he did well.

"I congratulated the players. I gave them off until Tuesday."
