The Sevilla FC coach was delighted with the victory of his team this Thursday evening in the quarter-finals of the Europa League against the Red Devils (3-0).
Jose Luis Mendilibar (coach of Sevilla FC, winner of Manchester United 3-0 on Thursday evening and qualified for the semi-finals of the Europa League): “I thought it was going to be a balanced match, which was going to be decided in the final moments, and in truth, we were quiet only the last twelve minutes, after the 3-0. Until then, we didn’t quite believe it. (On what he brought to this team) Simplicity, I think. I don’t know, I’m not asking anything weird. I am as I am, and I will not change. I started at regional level and now I’m in the semi-finals of the Europa League with a very good team. But in my opinion, simplicity is one of the most important things in football. The crowd and the atmosphere helped us believe that we could do it, that we could beat Manchester United, and we were able to. And I will always ask the same thing of the players: believe it, believe it and believe it again“. Comments collected in a post-match press conference.
