Regarding the injury suffered by Kike Barja, Arrasate pointed out that the group is "very worried" about their player: "We have to wait for tomorrow's tests, but we are worried. The joy is not complete. We are talking about players that you live with every day.

"You can imagine how it might feel.

"He was returning to the eleven. I had the hope that the season would end well. Last year it was like that too and we wanted to play with that winger. We will wait for the tests, but we were a little lame in the winger position.

"The points we have has a lot of merit. One more than last year. We have to continue like this. If we work and have commitment we are a difficult team to beat."
