Oier Zarraga spoke to the media after opening the scoring in Udinese's 2-1 win at Cagliari. 
 
“We really wanted to win today,” he began. “We'd gone too many games without getting three points but we came and got them here, which is a tough place to come. We deserve it. We did a great job,
 
“I'm happy to have scored – it's not one of my best qualities but people are always telling me I should try. I was lucky enough to get a goal today and I'm pleased it have helped the team. I'd seen the space before then and I told Rui Modesto. He saw my run and we turned it into a goal.
 
“The coach knows I want to do my bit to help. I haven't played as much as I wanted this season but he knows I'm always ready. Performing the way I did today is the only way to earn more playing time.”
