Valencia head coach Carlos Corberán gave an interview to the media after the match against Alaves in the 9th round.  

Carlos Corberán said in an interview: "We are always self-critical and demanding of ourselves and the team. In every game, we will motivate ourselves. I think the team has shown a fighting spirit and possessed the necessary mentality in the face of adversity. Although mentality alone is not enough, we must also play well, but without this mentality, we can't get any points."  

"This surface is challenging for any team. The positive thing is that we started well and then the opponent started to step up their attack. Although we couldn't maintain the good start, I saw that the team was able to rise to the challenge. I noticed an improvement in the team's mentality, although the overall performance did not change much."  

Regarding Jose Copet's injury, he said: "Jose Copet suffered a thigh injury, which prevented him from continuing the game. We need to further examine his injury and there will be clearer results in a few days."  

Talking about this game, Carlos Corberán said: "For me, the team has always maintained a positive and aggressive attitude in the second half. On the offensive end, we failed to effectively force Alaves back to their own half, which makes us dissatisfied with this point. Relying on the team's tenacious mental strength, we must continue to improve our performance."  

"Mentality alone is not enough, we must continue to improve ourselves. Without the mentality to face adversity and the courage to fight, it will be difficult for us to make progress. Only when the team has the right competitive spirit can it maintain its vitality, and only when this mentality is combined with technical and tactical ability can it bring about significant changes. We understand the fans' disappointment, and Valencia Football Club will go all out to make continuous progress in all aspects. Until that ideal day arrives, we will continue to work hard and persevere."  

"We had several chances to take the lead, but Alaves ultimately controlled the tempo of the game. I saw the players maintain a determined mentality and persevere until the end. It was with this spirit that Valencia CF ultimately secured a point."
