Pellicer: “It was the most complete match at La Rosaleda”
The Malaguista coach held a press conference following the #MálagaRayo clash. “We wanted to make the fans happy; these points give us some breathing space”, he said.
Review
“We were forceful against a major rival tonight, one of the best teams in the category, and this is the way forward. I saw green shoots, I’m incredibly proud of the players. We were determined to win at La Rosaleda. These three points are worth their weight in gold, we’re distancing ourselves and moving forward”.
Reward
“There were a lot of things we did well, and we knew how to control aspects of play that have been penalising us. We’d like to have continuity, the results don’t reflect the way we’ve been competing. We’re moving away from the bottom of the table, every point is a struggle. At last, we’ve won at our home ground”.
Victory for the fans
“We’ve given many versions of ourselves away from home that have been very similar to what we saw tonight. This has to boost the players’ confidence. We were determined to dedicate this victory to the fans”.
Teamwork
“It’s not a day to single out individual players. Everyone in action deserves a 10 out of 10”.
Focus on Mirandés
“There’s a long way to go. These points give us some breathing space and we’re on alert. We’re ambitious and going for a win against Mirandés”.
Complete match
“It was the most complete match at our stadium, in terms of continuity and control of all aspects of play”.
