Michel said, "A very complicated game, against an opponent who had just made 10 out of 12, we caught them at the best moment of the season but I think we played a great game. With the ball in the first half it was difficult for us and I think that in the second half we had several clear ones and I think the result is fair.

"We have moved forward with a great mentality."
On reaching the Champions League places, he also said: "We were talking about 71-72 points, there is still a lot to do. There are 10 games left, we have 12 points over Athletic in the absence of what they do.
"It is true that we are on a good path. A victory like today gives us a lot of peace of mind and a lot of morale."
