It's a sign that it was worth it and that what we did was well done." "I say this, the past is past and we will not fall asleep in his shadow. Of course it is not every day that we are elected 'Club of the Year', but in our home, there is a good custom of thinking that the most important title is the one we will conquer next. Therefore, our total attention is on the coming competition fronts, where we want to make our mark and win more trophies for the club."
