Coaching career

Valencia

In 2007, Valencia fired coach Quique Flores, and Fernández was appointed interim coach.[1] After his last game with Valencia when the beat Mallorca 2-0 with 2 goals from Fernando Morientes, after the match he said

I am very happy. I want to dedicate this victory to the fans of Valencia who have suffered, they deserves everything. Alexis also and above all to the team. They are football players committed to the cause and I thank them. As for the match, the team has been extraordinary and my defense has been composed by Morientes and Timo Hildebrand. Manuel Fernandes has helped the team, in defense and is the one to praise. As for Alexis, you may have some injury, but until Monday, we cannot say anything.

—Ó. Fernández[2]
