Cenk Özkacar had mixed emotions after making his debut for Valencia.

The on-loan Lyon defender featured in the disappointing home defeat to Real Mallorca on Saturday.

He said, “It's a bit difficult after six months without playing an official match, but I'm very happy to have debuted at Mestalla with the fans here. The fans have been incredible, as always. I wanted to win, but it was not possible. I'm happy to have debuted.

"Today was a little bit difficult. In LaLiga you play with passion and going out without warming up was tricky, but I wanted to give everything for the team.

"I'm sorry that we couldn't win."
