Valencia youngster Diego Lopez is delighted to be seeing senior action in preseason.

Lopez has seen action in all preseason friendlies.

After victory over Cartagena, he told the club's website: "In the two weeks of preseason that we've had, we've just been working and working. Even though we went a goal down, the team continued to work in order to get the result. That's the important thing.

"We can't give up after conceding a goal, because the game keeps going and there are many minutes remaining. That's what happened: We turned the scoreline around and got another victory for our preseason.

"Winning in itself isn't the most important thing in preseason, but rather our work and our preparation. But it isn't the same thing to work in preseason whilst getting wins, picking up confidence, compared to when you lose. So it's good to win."
