“It is an important victory against a rival of our league”

Espanyol striker Raúl de Tomás was delighted by his goal against Cádiz at the RCDE Stadium, but, above all, by an “important” victory against an opponent he described as from his league.

Yesterday was the attacker’s birthday and the duel against Cádiz was his best gift. “Not only for me, it is the best gift for the fans because we have given them a very important victory,” he said.

Asked if this year was his consecration, Raúl de Tomás, commented that every season he tries to do “the best possible.” “I think I have been doing things well for several seasons,” he reflected.
