Paco Jémez stated, over and above the result, “we have played a competitive match. Both sides went out in search of victory and the three points. I’m not happy with the final scoreline, but with our early goal and the chances we created we tried to get under the home fans’ skin but we couldn’t make it last.”
Regarding his players’ performance on the pitch today, he said “nobody is an automatic choice in the team, not even me. Who said this point might not be crucial at the end of the season? Nobody knows, it is true we made fewer mistakes today than the other day against Villarreal”.
Jémez considers the rest period due to international friendlies next week “could be beneficial to the team, as we can get some of our injured players back to fitness”, he concluded at the press room in Riazor.
