Merits
“We were close. If we didn’t know what was happening in the rankings, we didn’t give the feeling that Málaga are in the relegation zone, third from bottom. I believe we deserved much more today”.
Good match
“We played a very good match, particularly in the second half, we saw a reinforced Málaga following Chory’s goal. We continued with our idea and did what we’ve been working on in training during the week. I think that, beyond the defeat, of course, we get annoyed. We always want to win, especially because of the position we’re in. It’s important to focus on the positives from today. We keep taking steps forward. If we continue like this, we’ll soon be in a better situation”.
Controversial plays
“I was shown the yellow card as the referee said I shouldn’t talk to him the way I was. I said that I couldn’t speak to him in any other way, as with the noise of 80,000 fans he wasn’t going to hear me. Then there was a penalty that perhaps could have been called on them, Baysse’s goal, which for me was legal. A bit of everything”.
Believe
“There are never any sweet defeats. What we must do is analyse what happened today on the pitch, as there were many positives. They have to serve in helping us to keep believing in what we’re doing day to day and to keep working hard, which is good. We’ll soon get out of this position”.
