Pellicer: We are aware that we have to improve
The Málaga CF coach held a press conference following league matchday 8, which saw the Blue and Whites face UD Melilla. “The important thing is the process, the how and why of things, when you win and when you lose. We have to continue insisting,” he commented.
Rotation in midfield
“The best moments of the match were with them (Juanpe and Manu Molina). It is true that in the second half we took a dip. I don't think it's a question of physicality, but of the rival’s situation. We are very self-critical, but we must congratulate them because they gave their all.”
Ambition and demand
“We are aware that we have to improve. We had a very good first half and the second half we have to analyse. We’ll get everything ready and return to training tomorrow.”
The positives of the game
“It was a victory with suffering, featuring a bad second half, but we played the best first 30 minutes of the season against a rival with a low block and no spaces.”
The fans’ support
“The stands today were key. They saw their team was suffering and really spurred them on. People responded until the last minute, knowing that we were not giving them what they deserved. We are all aware this is very difficult. We are Málaga, but you don't win with the shield.”
Analyse to continue improving
“There are going to be matches in which by playing like this we are going to lose. Others in which by playing better we will also lose. The important thing is the process, the how and why of things, when you win and when you lose. We have to continue insisting.”
The team generates opportunities
“We have to be more forceful, but that means we are creating chances. If we managed to score the second goal, we would have seen another game.”
