PLAYERS REACT TO CELTA WIN

Read all of the reaction from the mixed zone after Sevilla's 2-1 win against Celta Vigo at the Ramón Sánchez-Pizjuán.

STEVAN JOVETIC

“We deserved to win today because we had a lot of chances. We should have killed them off earlier; it wasn’t easy because Celta are a very good team. We’re happy to be level on points with Atlético.

“[The ball] wouldn’t go in, I don’t know why. There would be a problem if we didn’t have chances, but goals come through creating chances.

“We’ve got four games to go and we hope to reach around 80 points. We’re all happy because we know that we have a very big opportunity. We’ve given everything to win and we’ve managed to do that.

“Now we’ve got to rest because we’ve got another final in three days.”

WISSAM BEN YEDDER

“It was a difficult game against a tough side. We created a lot of chances in the game, Celta are a good team and we needed to win to keep ourselves in contention for third place and we did that.

“I’m really happy with the goal, but the work that the team put in was really important. There’s a lot of talent in this dressing room.

“We’ve got to do the best we can in the last four games.”

NICO PAREJA

“We were the better side, we were in control and above all, we knew how to see the game out. We knew that there had been a result that gave us the impetus to go and win and as such we went looking for the game from the kick off.

“We’ve not been convincing of late, but we hope that the win tonight will put that right.

“Until it [Champions League qualification] is a mathematical certainty, we’re not assured of anything. Atlético Madrid and Villarreal are having a great season and will fight until the end.

“We know what we’ll be up against in Malaga [Sevilla’s next game, on Monday night], I don’t think that where we play is important but rather that we play well. It’ll be a game played at a high intensity, but that’s how we like to play.”

JOAQUÍN CORREA

“A number of chances came my way. I missed the first one and Sampaoli and my teammates told me to stay calm and a goal would come. We’re hopeful and have a lot of desire to finish the season in third place.

“The objective was to win to keep putting pressure on and you could see that we’ve got a good group that is prepared to do that.

“For a while we couldn’t find the back of the net and we weren’t taking the types of chances that we’ve taken before. We had to stick to it and we won.”
