Thoughts of the coaches
"A derby game is special, it is not just another game. It means a lot of different things for the fans, a club is made up of its fans and players are in debt to the fans. Therefore, we want to impose our football. Although our tactics may vary, we want to have the ball and use it well”, stated the coach Eduardo Berizzo, in the press conference.
In turn, the Deportivo player Juan Domínguez stated that the "Galician derby is a festival of football in Galicia and it is always special. It brings together lots of fans and the atmosphere is different. There is something unique about it”.
