"Girona was eliminated in the quarter-finals of the Spanish Cup after losing to Mallorca. This is only the second defeat for Michel's team this season.
"It's normal that the team is a bit upset about this defeat. But we are already preparing for the Spanish league match against Celta. We are doing well in La Liga and we need a win to stay in the top group. I have always said that the most important thing is the level of football. In that match against Mallorca, we had a bad half-hour, we were a soft team. Wins or losses are not as important as the mood and willingness to fight and show the usual level of football.
We are a modest enough team to understand that we are capable of beating any opponent, but defeats also come our way. We need to keep progressing, because our opponents are getting better and better at how we play with each match. The goal is to be in the European competitions, this is what our players want. We will fight for it," said Michel.
