Villarreal coach Marcelino García Toral, after defeating Real Sociedad, said that after seeing his players' performance at the Anoeta Stadium, he could only congratulate them. Villarreal did not give up until the final whistle and believed they could secure all three points.
Marcelino said: "We controlled the game for a time, but then gave the opponent some opportunities, although they scored two wonderful goals. In the end, we were lucky to get three valuable points. Winning in such a difficult away game is something to congratulate the players. Getting 32 points in a 42-point game, plus five consecutive wins, is really incredible."
The head coach stated that the key to Villarreal's success in La Liga lies in the team's overall strength. He pointed out, "Considering that we accumulated so many points in extremely difficult away games, it's truly remarkable. This is a very united team, with every player making the most of their playing time and performing at a high level. We should be grateful; achieving this while competing in the Champions League is no easy feat. Going forward, we must strive to maintain this form in both competitions."
Villarreal's head coach stated that making the right decisions in any situation is crucial. He said, "Our style of play inherently involves a certain degree of risk, and given the current players, we cannot abandon this style. Those wrong decisions where the risk outweighs the short-term gains need to be handled properly, but this can only be learned through experience."
