“It has been an outstanding season,” said Valencia coach Marcelino. “We have had a lot of problems but we stayed calm. To get back into the Champions League again is a great achievement.” They did reach the Europa League semi-finals but defeat to Arsenal two weeks ago closed that route to the Champions League.
“We don’t feel sorry for ourselves, not at all,” said Getafe coach Jose Bordalas. “At the start of the season, we would definitely have signed for this.” A brilliant header from Nemanja Maksimovic looked to have given Getafe a winning finish but Gerard Moreno’s angled shot bobbled its way in after some clumsy handling by David Soria.
