"Betis came into this game under a cloud but played well today. They prevented us from playing our natural game. With their new manager they were out to impress. We made it a bit easy for them at the start, while we didn’t make full use of the ball on occasions", said the UD Las Palmas trainer after a disappointing night in Seville.
"Their goals came from set pieces and we were unable to put anything together to hurt them", he added. "We weren’t clear enough with the ball and Betis were better on the day."
"We will keep working hard and believing in what we are doing. We knew that we would be facing a physical team in set pieces but we just have to accept that there are players who are better at certain moments".
"We don’t know the extent of Dani Castellano’s injury, while Lemos also finished the game with a knock", he declared.
