Paquito Ortiz stressed that "being 0-2 down at half time was too much, although we did make mistakes" and said that "it is not a matter of apathy, more our mental situation, you get knocked back when you go a goal behind, you can imagine how we feel when we let in a second goal". Regarding the point his team salvaged today, Paquito made it clear "we earned an important point for us".
He spoke of Jonathan Viera, saying "I cannot reproach him at all, he is having a wonderful season, pulling the team forward, and he has my full admiration and respect".
Referring to the mood in the dressing room after the match, he said "we are upset, but we need to pick ourselves up as we have another game on Wednesday", concluding his press conference at the Estadio Gran Canaria.
