Abdón Prats, Oihan Sancet and the dream of lifting the Cup

We spoke to two stars on the eve of the Copa del Rey final.

The clock is counting down, the final is getting closer and closer. A long road already travelled, a dream to be fulfilled and only one possible winner. Athletic Club and RCD Mallorca will battle it out on Saturday at 22:00 (live on La 1) to lift the Copa del Rey into the skies of the Seville night.

During the afternoon prior to this eagerly awaited match, both teams trained on the La Cartuja pitch and the RFEF cameras had the opportunity to speak to one star from each team in the shape of Abdón Prats and Oihan Sancet.

The RCD Mallorca striker is going into the final "with great enthusiasm and excitement. At the end of the day it's a historic occasion for us and we have to make the most of it and enjoy it to the maximum". Prats is aware of the road they have travelled and how close they are to being able to give a trophy to their fans: "This is a dream. I'm tremendously excited to finish off this fantastic Copa del Rey run that we've had by winning it, it would be the best thing for all Mallorcan fans".

For his part, the striker from Navarre arrives, like the rest of his teammates, full of enthusiasm in search of Cup victory, saying he was, "happy, very happy and excited. We want the final to arrive, to be able to play a good game and win the title".
