He said afterwards: "Liberation, not because we didn't want to continue. They are decisions of the club, which we respected. But we thought that this was not over. Contradictory feeling, we have not won titles but we were on the right path. But that's how it is, football has these things.
"The leaders make decisions. We are satisfied with what we have done: they are two titles in a situation of great adversity. The situation is difficult. The reaction of the players has been wonderful.
"We have tried to control our emotions, although it was difficult. We have prepared for it like everyone else. We have been good, we have dominated and we have been fair winners. I am happy.
"Now you look back, and it has been hard and difficult, but it has been enjoyed. It has been a rollercoaster of emotions. But I'm proud, I'm happy. But we also thought of continuing and finishing the contract and it was a shame."
