Franco Vázquez had mixed feelings after the defeat against Athletic, but recognised the goal was to qualify for the next round in the Copa del Rey. The Argentine said, 'we achieved our objective, that's the most important thing, but no one likes to lose and we didn't deserve to at all. Every team is tough and they all have their qualities.'

'I think we put in a good performance, complete, with many players who hadn't played in the last league match. It's good to continue in this competition so we all have minutes. We keep on going and that's how we like it,' he added.

Looking towards the weekend's trip to Real Madrid, Franco Vázquez said 'it's a great game to play, we all want to, we hope to play our game and that we can bring the points back home to Sevilla.'
