Lombán: “We must be strong at home”

The central defender from Asturias analyses Málaga CF’s situation ahead of the upcoming home game against Extremadura UD: “This match is so important. We need to be self-critical and correct the mistakes”.

Analysis of the match against Tenerife

“We always want to win, but considering the situation and how the match panned out, the point is positive. The start of play was difficult, they were superior, but after the water break we were able to turn things around. Then, with a man down, it was all about defending, not conceding and making the most of any opportunity. We’re playing at home next and we’re going to try to be strong”.

Protagonist of the week

“I featured in the action and I knew from the outset that the red card wasn’t fair. I’m not a player who receives many cards and I considered that decision to be extremely unfair at that moment. Luckily, the card was overturned and now it’s completely forgotten. Hopefully from here on in the decisions will be a lot more just and won’t do us any damage”.

Winning the three points

“It’s important to be very self-critical after every match, fix the mistakes we make, watch the match back with a great deal of patience and try to improve for the next one. The home game against Extremadura is highly important and every three points we obtain at this stage will be crucial for us”.
