Sevilla coach Quique Sanchez Flores was left happy with their 0-0 draw against Valencia.

Sanchez Flores felt it was a balanced match.

He said: "The first thing is to thank the Sevilla fans, those who have come here. We have seen them up there and it is a very hard work.

"Valencia is a team that plays with the security, the serenity of having achieved their objectives. They push a lot in their stadium, a team with a lot of energy, very young, who has pushed us especially at the beginning of each half, has made it difficult for us but then we have settled well.

"In the first half we played better football because we had vertical exits although they did not end with a shot, but we had four or five exits with a lot of danger. We entered better in the support of the centre backs, with Soumaré and Sow, and we equaled or surpassed the possession in the first half. In the second half we were lacking, we were neither vertical nor helping the centre backs. It was a more difficult game for us."
