Felipe Reyes
"We're going to Vitoria hoping to play as well as we did in Madrid on Thursday. It will be hard because we'll play away from home, but we're having a good streak and we are confident in our chances. I think the real pressure is on TAU because they were leaders of the regular season and they've won both the Super Cup and the King's Cup. They also have the home advantage. They will be anxious to prove their bad result at Vistalegre was just a fluke and they will try hard to beat us. That's the reason why we should showcase the same intensity we had on Thursday. We must be psychologically strong and stay cool throughout the clash."
