Sevilla center-back Quique Salas spoke to the media in the press conference room, where he discussed the team's current morale, saying that the whole team is full of positive emotions and confidence.  

Keke Salas said: "We are gradually recovering from this tough game because the team was giving it their all for 100 minutes. The whole team is full of confidence and is really looking forward to Saturday's game."  

“Every game is different, but we are always working hard to improve our defensive performance, and the game against Real Sociedad demonstrated that very well. We are pleased with that, as we kept a clean sheet and gave the opponent almost no chances, which gives us more confidence in our forwards’ performance in attack.”  

When asked about his family's presence at the pre-match pep talk, Keke Salas said, "It was a really unexpected surprise. Nobody expected it, and it was a wonderful moment for everyone. Our family has always been with us through difficult times, and their presence gave us tremendous strength, allowing us to give our all in the match."  

"Furthermore, the fans' performance was incredible and incredibly inspiring. We are so grateful to them; they have always stood by the team and are crucial to us. We can clearly feel their support, and they gave us extra motivation to fight for victory in the past few days. They understand the difficult times we've been going through, and they have always been there for us through thick and thin."  

“They are very united, and that victory wouldn’t have been possible without their support. Nothing has changed between us; we always step onto the field with the belief that we can win. This week, we truly felt their strong support at crucial moments, which gave us extra motivation. Of course, we also played a great game and showed the level we deserve.”  

"Next, we will focus all our efforts on preparation. Although the opponent is different, we still have a few days to prepare. This will be a final-level match, and the fans will be with us. We must fight for them and maintain our confidence, believing that we can win the game."  

“We will bring the energy, confidence, and support from the fans that we showed against Real Sociedad. The atmosphere in that game was incredibly vibrant, and I believe it will be just as intense on Saturday. We can’t ask for more from the fans; they have given us so much that we are incredibly proud and grateful. We hope to repay them with our performance and make them proud of us.”
