Foyth: “I know I have a long road ahead and I’m going to enjoy it

Juan Foyth was the great protagonist in the match that Villarreal played against Rayo Vallecano. The Argentine defender, whose return to a call-up was already newsworthy, returned to the fields one year and four days after having played his last official match with the Villarreal shirt. Without a doubt, one of the best news so far this season for the coach, Marcelino García Toral.

The world champion with Argentina took to the field in the 74th minute, replacing Navarro, and his outstanding performance did not denote his long inactivity: “There were many months in which I had the support of many people, but they were hard. I did not expect such a reception, so I am very grateful to the fans. I have talked about it a lot with my wife, because I have been playing soccer non-stop since I was three years old. My dream as a child was to play on television one day, and when you achieve what you want most it becomes very difficult for such a long time,” he stated, visibly excited.

Foyth is clear that he is now at a disadvantage when it comes to fighting for a position and did not hesitate to praise his teammate Kiko Femenía for the high level shown during his absence: “I watch Kiko play and I think he is at a spectacular level. The position is his and I will try to compete healthily to play. If I have to do it somewhere else I have no problem but I will push from wherever. If it is from central, from central.” Likewise, and despite the bad streak, he was convinced that they will finally fight at the top: “The balance must be positive, there is one game left that we want to win and we know that we are going to fight to be very high”.

The Argentine referred to the plague of injuries that plagues a large part of the squad and the possible causes: “They play at a very high pace, something that is noticeable on the pitch. Every start, every braking…Many times they are circumstances of sport. For the moment I am happy to return and I know that the road is long to return to my level. But I am happy doing this and I am going to enjoy this path.”
