Nyland: “We are ready to score against Barcelona”

Nyland reviewed through the official Sevilla media to talk about the club’s situation, and especially the evident improvement at a sporting level, before the match against Barcelona. First of all, he wanted to talk about his feelings on an individual level: «I feel very good, the first game was very good at home. In the second, we played one part very well, but not the second. Personally I had work, I did it well. I’m glad to be here and I really want to score more points. I am very happy, before the national team we did very well, winning three consecutive home games and also having a very good away game against Athletic. “We are now prepared to play a good game against FC Barcelona.”

Nyland commented on the official Nervión radio about the degree of importance of the good moment that is flying over Nervión, especially with regard to the emotional level. «The latest results have given us a lot of confidence. The first games of the season were not bad, but we conceded goals. As I say, before the national teams we were more stable. Sometimes we suffered during the games but in the end we got the three points. At home it is very important to win. We are ready, the players who stayed here have worked well. The returning players have played well as well. We are ready to add against FC Barcelona. We know it’s not easy, but last year we played a good game and lost with an own goal. “All the players and coaching staff really want to get points.”

Nyland also had words for the defensive aspect of the team, a key aspect to take into account against the Blaugrana team in Sunday’s match: «The most important thing is to be solid defensively. They have a lot of capacity up front, not only the players who start, the one who comes in also has a lot of quality. If we have this defensive solidity, we can get chances to score goals because we have many quality players. A counterattack, a set piece or with the ball we played well. I’m sure that we will have the possibility of scoring goals. The most important thing is to have confidence in defense and be solid, if this happens anything is possible,” he stressed.

The Nordic goalkeeper closed his speech with the importance of coming from winning a derby, also because of how special it was for Navas: «It was possibly Jesús’s last derby, for everything he has done for the club he deserves recognition. He is a legend of the club and a good friendhe helped me a lot last year. We talk about different things every day. I’m happy for him. “It was a gesture that I had to have.” «Before the game and during the week we talked a lot about the game. We knew it would possibly be his last derby and we wanted to win for him and for the fans. It is a very important match for the entire city. It was a reaction from all the players that was very happy for him and for the result,” he added.
