Dani Ceballos was happiness personified! The apprentice made his debut with the First Team, he had a fantastic game and helped keep the team in the Copa del Rey tournament. Dani was thrilled "about the victory, the team showed what they are made of and most importantly, we made it through to the next round. Now we have to wait for our next rival, and I am really pleased with how things went. There were lots of positives in the match; once again, we didn't concede any goals. The team has worked really hard and showed what they are made of and most importantly, we made it through to the next round”. 

About the fans and his recognition: “The fans are fantastic and they really support the team; it's one of the best fan clubs that I have ever seen. I have never played in such an intense match, 120 minutes, and now I need to recover. The fans like the apprentices and one feels appreciated. They like the work that we put in and the struggle. 

Possible derby match: “If it's a local derby, that will be great, if not, then we will just have to wait and see who we are up against next. The coach is really happy, he is focussing on the positives and the fact that we are still in the tournament”.

The future: “I have to keep working and making the most of any opportunties that the coach gives me. The fact that the coach is pleased with me is everything, and I am really happy with the match”.
