The Málaga CF coach highlights the importance of achieving victory at home: “We’ve got 15 points which gives us peace of mind. We need to try and earn points in every game, if it’s three each time, then all the better”.
Important victory
“We achieved a win tonight that I consider was necessary. Gaining three points at home is important, taking into account the away games we’ve got coming up. Winning three points always brings the peace of mind the team needs. The effort made to achieve this victory is great, and for that I’m thankful”.
Michael Santos and Ontiveros
“That’s what the players and squads are there for, to make the most of the opportunity when it arises. They collaborated and helped the team to rise up, as we were struggling. I think at that time the reaction of the crowd and the team was wonderful as we turned the scoreboard around, which was difficult coming back from 0-1 and 1-2”.
Position in the rankings
“We’re only in the first third of the League. It’s too soon to mark out the position we should be in. We’ve got 15 points, which gives us peace of mind. We need to try and earn points in every game, if it’s three each time, then all the better”.
Prominence of Ontiveros
“He did what I asked of him on the bench, he went out there and helped the team. He revolutionised the game. His performance was commendable, and he collaborated in the second goal. He’s a great guy who has a bright future, but he’s still very young so it’s important to be patient with him to ensure he takes the right steps forward”.
