However, there is no time to look back; we need to focus on the Elche match." On the competition in La Liga, Koeman stated, "We can fight for the league. The current time shows that everyone is facing difficulties in adding more points. The next two matches against Elche and Sevilla are extremely important. We also know we need to return to the cup.
