Match analysis
“I think the team deserved more because of their hard work. We had two one-on-ones from Patricia Mascaró and I believe the team deserved a goal. The first goal hurt us, but I think today the team gave a First Division performance. Today is a day to be proud of our Málaga and we must keep working. I told the girls to hold their heads high. I always say that we must keep our feet on the ground and fight for what we know it cost us to achieve this promotion”.
A team full of enthusiasm
“I think looking for someone to blame would be very easy. Patricia had two very good chances, Adriana’s shot shouldn’t have hit the post. We need to focus on the positives and this team is fighting to the death. Ruth, María Ruiz, Chelsea, Pamela… they all did an amazing job. Adriana, at 30 years old, continues to leave her soul on the pitch with and without the ball. Patricia, even though she didn’t convert, has been working hard”.
The fans
“We have to value that today in a women’s football match there were 600 people supporting the team”.
Lack of goal
“It costs so much to get that first goal. You have to work so that the rival doesn’t mark you, but in order to remain unmarked you must try not to make mistakes. We must continue believing that. This dressing room conveys the truth to me and there are people who are certain we’re going to do turn this around. This is going to be a league in which we’re going to fight five teams in order to maintain the category”.
Permanency
“This team will be saved and will do so by playing well, standing up to rivals and being a First Division side. Today, if anyone has watched women’s football, you can see this is a First Division team”.
