García Pimienta: "The expulsion really conditioned the game, but the team still showed character"
The yellow coach mentioned in the post-match press conference, "I feel a lot of pride for these players. Playing against a team like Sevilla, with one less player, on an action that I don't even consider a foul, speaks volumes about the squad."
García Pimienta spoke to the press after the home defeat against Sevilla FC. The coach expressed, despite not getting a positive result, he feels "a lot of pride for these players. Playing against a team like Sevilla, with one less player, on an action that I don't even consider a foul, speaks volumes about the squad." He added, "We didn't lose sight of the game; with them, I'd go to the end of the world."
"I'm not one to make excuses, but playing so much time against a team like Sevilla, with one less player, really conditions the game," the coach mentioned about Saúl Coco's early expulsion.
Regarding the lack of goals, Pimienta highlighted, "We are who we are, and it's hard for us to score and create chances. It's nobody's fault; scoring is a team effort, but naturally, when we're at our best, I can't ask for more from the boys. If we're not accurate, we need to concede very little at the back."
"We have to keep insisting and moving forward; that's what has brought us here. I analyze every game, and the team competes to try to win them," he concluded.
