UD Las Palmas and Real Sociedad clashed in the 3rd matchday of LALIGA EA SPORTS at the Estadio Gran Canaria, resulting in a 0-0 draw. The yellow team's coach, García Pimienta, appeared at the press conference after the game, expressing his satisfaction with his team's performance during the day: "I'm happy with the match, the gameplay, the chances... We're talking about a Champions League team. We've conceded relatively little against a team like Real Sociedad and we never lost control of the game."

"The substitutions were made with the intention of injecting freshness into the match; Real was perhaps attacking a bit more. Jonathan is our leader and he had a great game in all aspects," he mentioned regarding the second-half rotations. As for Sory's debut: "He did really well, providing us that outlet when we played long balls and causing problems for the opposing defenses."

The coach believes that despite not securing a victory, the team "is on the right path to follow. It's a shame that we generated very clear chances and couldn't convert any of them because this game is about goals." "The first half was very good, practically Real Sociedad didn't get close to our goal," he added.

"The most specific player we have is Sory, the rest of the attacking players can play in all three positions. Munir had a very complete game, and I'm very pleased with his performance," he concluded.
