Roque Mesa analysed Sevilla FC's win this Thursday against Krasnodar, a match that leaves a great sense of satisfaction for the good work done: 'We were very focused from the start. We knew that we had to win no matter what and the match started well. we scored two goals and, although it looked comfortable, it was difficult. We're very happy with the win and because we move on in the competition. We came out fully switched on from the start, it was a final, and the team responded very well. We had to inject intensity into the match from the first minute because they're a good team and they beat us at their ground, and we had to take the initiative. Wissam scored the first two and he was a ten out of ten today like the rest of the team because we all did a very good job.'

'The two goals calmed us down and also the sending-off, Éver's third goal...It was a complicated game. We move on and we'll welcome the challenge of the next opponents whoever they are. We know that Sevilla like this competition. Now we'll think about Girona and about getting the three points here at home,' he concluded.
