Press conference

"We played well, but we leave frustrated"

Dioni held a press conference after #MálagaAlmería. “It's a very competitive league, and anyone can score against you from any play," he said.

Cruel ending
“The way it happened, from a set piece. We played a very good game, the opponent didn’t have any chances. We’re upset, but this continues, and we have to keep moving forward.”

‘Their’ goal
“I’m not sure if it was an own goal, I’ll have to check. What matters is that it went in, we went 1-0 up, but it wasn’t enough to get the three points. This is difficult, it’s a competitive league, and anyone can score against you from any play.”

Firepower upfront
“It’s clear that you have to score goals to win matches. Upfront, in counter-attacking situations, we could have done more. Everyone wants to score, we’re working on it, and in the end, it will come for sure.”

Local pride
“It’s tough to play away, but when we play at La Rosaleda, we feel something that others don’t feel. It’s a pride to play in front of so many people, and many teams aren’t lucky enough to experience that. We thank the fans, they’re always supporting us, they give their all, and we will give everything for the shield.”

Málaga fans
“It’s every match. It doesn’t matter which team comes, there’s always an average of 25,000 or 26,000 spectators. Football in Málaga is growing, there are more and more kids in the stands, and that’s something to be happy about.”
