The midfielder from Huelva analysed the 0-0 draw at home against Real Racing Club. “We have earned the respect of all opposing teams,” he said to the media.
Great game “We knew the intensity Racing plays with, pressing high and keeping a high defensive line. We had to play quickly and with intensity, and today the team was a perfect 10. If we had gone into half-time 3-0, it wouldn’t have been out of place. But football is about efficiency, and today we had clear chances but didn’t convert them.”
Superiority “We were superior to Racing. It’s the first time they haven’t scored away from home. We tried until the very end, with shots from outside the box, clear chances… It’s a shame because we could have taken all three points home today, and it would have been well-deserved.”
Satisfied “When you play games like this, you leave feeling satisfied. I enjoy watching Málaga, we’ve earned the respect of all opposing teams. The issue is that when you’re superior to your opponent, create chances, and don’t score, that’s what stings. We’ll sleep well, but we won’t take home the three points.”
United group “Since last year, we’ve formed a very strong group. The dressing room opened up to the public. We stay focused on our goals, and when you have the freedom to take initiative, the team competes, and when it’s time to work hard, they do it. That was clear today, and the fans left happy with their team. This team will never give up. We know where we come from, we are where we are, at least in the Second Division. This group of players, with a coach who knows how to manage them very well, will never stop fighting for Málaga.”
Goal opportunities “I take comfort in the fact that we’re creating chances, otherwise, I’d be worried. We’re reaching the final third very well, and it’s just about converting those chances. There’s nothing to reproach.”
