Match analysis
“The point is very negative as I haven’t seen a team play football like that in the first half for a long time. We were capable of generating superiorities in all areas of the pitch, creating goal opportunities, enjoying dominating possession and the match in general, but we didn’t convert this into goals. On the one occasion they had, which I believe was the only one, they scored and then with a superb individual display we went level. To me this isn’t right, it’s not just about dominating matches, we need goals and know how to convert them. I believe we should have won”.
More effective in the area
“We generated and understood the spaces, but then in the area we need to be more aggressive. They arrived once and launched the ball with all their might, yet we need to finish the play inside the area. We must be more aggressive. You cannot repeat 14 goal opportunities, we’re leaving with a draw that feels like defeat”.
Keep working at the goal
“There is a fairly defined game model, the players are doing their jobs and their positioning is good, but football is about scoring goals. We train all week on finishing techniques and will continue to do so. My job here is to ensure we score as many points as possible. We should have won today”.
Message to fans
“They already know, but I want to return their affection publicly. It’s an honour for me that the players are always so well supported. We are a team that is close to the fans and I can never give back all the love and support they show us”.
External factors
“These are factors one is accustomed to, which we’ve said before. If the league moves up a level, then you have to do so. There are also other factors such as the player scoring the goal being a former Malaguista and I knew that if someone scored a goal it would be her. They get paid to score goals and they were fortunate to score from the chance they had”.
