If you fail once, you should not give up but keep trying. And the coach has done that. He does not have to wait for long. In his 21st time, the 53 years old Valencia coach has won Barcelona. With the six different clubs, he was on the dugout against Barcelona for twenty matches. But could not see a single victory. He faced six draws and fourteen defeats against the Spanish giants.
LAST NIGHT’S SOUNDBITES
:Marcelino: “In the tough moments, the players showed me their support. I’ll never forget that. It isn’t easy for a club to back you so much either. It was even harder to turn things around. I wasn’t that bad then, I’m not this good now.”#LLL

Finally, the former footballer Marcelino has seen the victory against the Catalan club. And it was the Copa del Rey final. And the meaning of winning the final is to bring the title to the home. In his professional coaching career, it is the first big trophy for Marcelino.
The Valencia coach has also announced that it was the most special day in his career. It was his first victory. And also the final was the first in his career and the victory as well. To give him such an extremely beautiful memory, he thanked the players, coaching staff and others. He stated that he is very thankful to his supporters, fans of the club and also to his family those who support him every day. And to them for those he has got the most precious day in his life so far.
It seems that Barcelona almost bought Copa del Rey for their own. They have won a total of the 30th title of the tournament which is the highest. And in the last four seasons, they won the Copa del Rey consecutively. After getting out from the Champions League, by winning the Cope del Rey, the Spanish giants wanted to win the ‘Double’. But, their hope did not come true.
