Match analysis
“It was a very tight game. Espanyol had the first half, we had the second. Both teams had their chances. The distribution of points was a lesser evil. We’re coming away with a difficult result, as we ended with a draw that feels like a victory. It reminded me a lot of the first LaLiga game.”
Reaction after the 2-0
“I think our reaction was extremely positive. The team didn’t give up and showed courage to move forward. The rival’s goals were as a result of mistakes. They scored them with tremendous ease. This can’t happen in the First Division.”
Three strikers
“We were behind on the scoreboard and went all out to turn the game around, despite the risks. Sometimes you lose a match dismally, but today we were able to make a comeback and turn the result around. Nesyri is very young and showed great will.”
International calendar
“The League break will allow us to train, work hard and perfect things that we’ve left behind.”
