Sevilla defender Salas: Nothing more beautiful than scoring in a derby

Kike Salas was delighted scoring for Sevilla against Real Betis in Sunday's 1-1 draw.

An Isco penalty for Betis was canceled out by Salas for Sevilla.

He later said: "There is nothing more beautiful than scoring in a derby.

"It has been a dream since I was a child and I am proud to defend this shirt in this stadium. I think of the family, of all the work behind it and of all the fans who are behind us always defending us."

Kike added, "Here we always go for the victory. It is a very nice and special game for everyone . We came for the victory, it was difficult for us with the penalty and then we were good, they did not create any great chances for us.

"A draw is worth little for us but we're happy."
