CWith his third brace of the season, IAug Aspas already has thirteen goals and is one goal short of the fourteen he scored in the last two seasons. He has eleven games ahead of him to match and exceed that figure, a mission that seems feasible.
The striker from Moaña, who also has four assists, is fighting for his fourth Zarra Trophy, as the top national scorer. He is currently tied with the Spanish player, Raúl de Tomás.
Meanwhile, the Celtic player is satisfied after his team’s last win, against Mallorca: “It was a game of a lot of suffering and In the end we are happy. I think we played almost better in the last few minutes with ten than with eleven players. We had more pause, a couple of occasions and in the end that penalty that gave us three points that makes us think that there are still options for everything in this final stretch“.
The only thing that crossed his mind, when he took the penalty that gave them the win at the last minute, was that he had to make it happen: “I thought I had to try to put it in to help the teammates. It was a strong shot and the important thing is that it went in to score three points”.
Coudet was betting on a 4-3, Iago Aspas does not want so much suffering: “I prefer a 4-1 or a 4-0 and not a 4-3 and suffering until the 96th minute. We had pause and encouragement from our people, who had their reward. We don’t stop. We want to go for more and we have a very difficult game on Saturday, but the team is psyched up”.
