Sergio Alvarez not interested in personal glory

Alvarez not interested in personal glory

Celta Vigo goalkeeper Sergio Alvarez has claimed that his team deserved to beat Barcelona at the Camp Nou on Saturday.

Alvarez put in one of the all-time great goalkeeping displays against the Catalan outfit, making a number of exceptional saves as the visitors picked up all the points with a 1-0 win.

However, Alvarez has insisted that every member of the team should be credited.

"Our team was very good throughout the match although we suffered and we attacked," he told AS.

"To win at Barca you need luck and something more. The ball didn't want to go in for them and we had mental toughness. We learned to take our chances.

"Celta's best player? We're not about one player. We all deserve this victory."

Barcelona also hit the crossbar four times during the La Liga clash.
