Luis García: "We are not going to stray from the path even a centimeter, we are going to swallow the poison with this defeat, which is tough."
The coach of UD Las Palmas, Luis García, appeared before the media at the end of the match against FC Andorra, which ended in a 5-1 defeat for the yellow team.
The coach acknowledged his team's superiority during the first half and lamented their performance after the break.
“In the first half, we were better, we should have been ahead on the scoreboard. In the second half, we were not good at all. It's a tough defeat that I take naturally. Solely and exclusively my responsibility, I apologize to our fans.”
These were some of his statements:
“It's clear that our idea was to come and compete and win, we are not going to deviate from our path even a little. We are going to swallow the poison of this defeat, which is tough, but it will not deter us."
"The team has worked very well throughout the year. It was a bad day or a bad second half. We have to self-criticize, and I repeat again that I take responsibility for what happened.”
“When you play against this type of team, if there is any imbalance, any free man left in the intermediate zone, both Andorra and we have the ability to find it. If they adjust well, it's hard to progress, as it was for us in the second half.”
