García Pimienta: We cannot make these mistakes in this category

UD Las Palmas were defeated at Nuevo Los Cármenes by a Granada CF team that was superior in the first half of the match. García Pimienta indicated at the end of the game that "we're approaching the end, all teams have a lot to play for. We're making very serious mistakes that penalize us a lot" and added "We knew that at certain stages of the game Granada would have their chances, but we can't give away these gifts."

You can't be happy when you lose a game at this level. The coach believes that "it's not a mental issue, the solidity we had in the first half of the season we're not managing to maintain, but the team trains very well every day and with a lot of passion," adding, "There's a lot left, but I'm leaving sad, it was a big game to do important things.

 Vitolo was sent off after entering the field of play and knocking down an opponent, and García Pimienta indicated that "knowing him, I doubt very much that he intended to harm anyone." Regarding Jonathan Viera, he ended by saying that "he's the one who wants things to go well the most, he shows it every day. He's our captain and our leader, he's very important to us. He won't be able to play in the next round, but I'm sure he'll be decisive in the final stretch."
