Press conference
Pellicer: “We have to be proud of the team”

The Malaguista coach held a press conference following #MálagaGirona. “The collective defensive resistance with a man down and the objective achieved deserves tremendous merit”, he stated.

Good performance

“We have to be proud of the team's game, it shows their commitment to the Club and the coaching staff. We have faced the best rival in the second round and what we did to them in the first 15 minutes, 11 against 11, nobody else has done. The collective defensive resistance with a man down and the objective achieved deserves tremendous merit. It’s just a shame that we didn’t manage to achieve a positive result today and be in the top 10. The expulsion of Josua was a fortuitous move, and in regard to mine, nothing happened, I didn’t say anything to the referee, I was angry with myself”.

Upcoming games

“The group is competing. We’ve come from two adverse results. Let's see what players we have available for Monday. Cristian has seen his fifth yellow card, so we’ll see if we can recover a player. Escassi ended with a problem to the calf muscle. We had to take off Ismael to bring on Loren, as we had eight professional players and two from the reserve team, it was a risk. We have to compete, we’re at the limit. Luck isn’t on our side in regard to the injuries, Benkhemassa is out, Orlando can’t participate either”.
