Garcia Pimienta addressed the media following today's 3-1 victory over CD Tenerife at the Gran Canaria Stadium. The coach stated that he is "extremely glad, today we have got the reward for all of the team's hard work." We have made very few concessions, and this is the way ahead." "It has been a wonderful week with all that was experienced in the atmosphere, for us it is three more points but they have enjoyed a lot," he said of the triumph.

The coach stated that UD has restored its performance in front of goal "Today we were successful; we are a team that typically plays well and efficiently," he said, adding that "apart from playing well and creating opportunities, we performed well under the pressure after losses and counter-attacks." Today's game is ideal in terms of play and effectiveness; allowing only one scoring opportunity against a team like Tenerife is something to remember ".

"I'm not going to discover Pejiño; we're a team that organises itself a lot, and he forces us to create scoring opportunities inside his mess." "If he plays these kind of games, he will participate a lot more; I am really delighted for him; he has played a very complete game, and he needs to give us this level every weekend," he added of the winger. "He is another youngster that I am not going to discover either, he has made a fantastic match," says Moleiro. Those on the bench deserve to play when you have such a huge and talented squad. I am delighted because Alberto deserved a match like this as well; he has a bright future."

"We're on matchday 17, and there's a lot to play for." We've had more patience and we've been protagonists; today we saw the team that we all desire," García Pimienta said, adding that "Tenerife couldn't do more today because Las Palmas has been very excellent, we've been better, and as a result, they haven't been able to produce as many scoring opportunities." They had three straight wins, and we were better today."

"There's a lot of happiness in the locker room, I'm cautious, but we have to enjoy triumphs because it costs us a lot to win," continued the coach, who finished by thanking the supporters again: "I've been in football for a long time, and what I've discovered here with the fans is wonderful." Even if the season ticket holders had to pay, we filled the stadium, and it was a party. The supporters deserved to win, and I thank them for doing so. They must be quite proud of their players."
