Sergio was delighted to see Espanyol win after five games without success, claiming a 2-1 victory over Levante.
Goals from Felipe Caicedo and Sergio Garcia cancelled out Jose Luis Morales’ opener for Les Granotes and Sergio praised both the players and the fans, who turned out despite a torrential downpour.
“We had to win that. This is great after a horrible week,” he said, Marca reports.
“The players have given everything. They’ve shown the desire to do good things and the right attitude from the first minute. I take off my hat to them.
“In this weather, the supporters are also worthy of praise.
“The team understood perfectly the situation. It’s a vital win. We were in dangerous form, the extreme of football. These three points are a breath of fresh air.”
