Sevilla coach Mattias Almeida commented on the team's defeat against Valencia in the 29th round of La Liga.

Head coach Mattias Almeida admitted that the team performed poorly in the match against Valencia, saying: "This is a negative assessment and a heavy blow. Both sides seemed timid in the game, and our mistakes allowed the opponent to score two goals. We played very badly in this match, and I take responsibility for it."

“In the last two games, we have seen a lack of fighting spirit. These qualities, such as self-esteem and commitment, used to be our team’s strengths. But now the team is very afraid of making mistakes and lacks clear goals, which makes it difficult to move things forward smoothly.”

Regarding Oso's absence from the starting lineup, Sevilla coach Mattias Almeida explained: "As the head coach, I have to be responsible for the decisions. Oso had a fever yesterday and couldn't start. The key is to make the right decision; we need to make the right choice and analyze the situation in the next few days."

Finally, regarding César Azpilicueta's substitution, Matthias Almeida said, "César Azpilicueta seemed to be experiencing discomfort in his adductor muscles. I think bringing on Acolyte would increase our attacking options and also made the necessary substitution. We then tried to improve the situation, but were unsuccessful."
