Villa happy to help

David Villa has said his two goals against Celta Vigo were for the whole of Atletico Madrid and not himself.

Villa scored twice in as many minutes just after the hour mark to give Atleti the victory over Celta and keep Los Colchoneros in the title race.

Speaking to reporters after the final whistle, Villa called on Atletico to knuckle down for the rest of the season.

“These points put us back in the fight for the title,” Villa said.

“It was a tough game and a tough opponent. All points are important but we have to go Sunday to Sunday.

“Every game we play now is a final and we need to win them all.

“We took advantage of the space on the pitch and changed the game in a couple of minutes.

“I’m happy my goals helped the team and I’ll keep working.”
