“Osasuna drew at El Sadar against a sister club like Alaves. Then andstart losing from the first minute of the game, Vicente Moreno’s side had a poor first half and started the second half very well, making it 2-1 in the second half.Finally, a brace from former Osasuna player Quique Garcia left the final table.
Vicente Moreno analyzed the result at the press conference“It makes me sad when the opponent’s goalkeeper plays the best, it says something. We went forward little by little, turned the score around and managed to score more goals. In one, when they arrived, they equalized and the opportunity to add the three points eludes you.”
“You have to row a lot to win the game. When you think you’re doing everything right to win, it hurts. We have to work on the things we need to improve, but I think it’s a good game we showed it,” said the coach from Valencia.
When the opposing team’s goalie plays at his best, that says something
Trailing 0-1 after leaving at half-time, Vicente Moreno made a move and put two forwardsRaul García and Budimir: “We didn’t know how Alaves would play, we had a reference to the Copa del Rey and their new coach. “In the first half, we didn’t read well what they wanted to do. In the second half we sent two forwards to have a presence in the area, we gave more freedom to Aimar, the zone for Abel, to look for centers and despite the chances, the result did not come.”
“The players have made a huge effort and I congratulate them for their work. c:r:I think it’s good to be upset when we don’t winshows our ambition,” he announced.
It’s okay to be upset when we don’t win
There was a scuffle in the area in the first half which, despite VAR’s call for Soto Grado to review the game, did not end with a whistle.“These decisions are ordinary, they are not in our favor. It’s not normal that VAR calls you to award a penalty and you commit a foul against yourself. We are Osasuna and we are unlucky. We work hard, we put in a lot of effort and we would like to be looked at like everyone else. We want to be at the top with the best, and eventually these things make an impact.”
Osasuna has three draws in three games in which he led. It seems that the Rojillos are having a hard time making a statement. “It’s not easy to close games at this level, it’s true, we managed to do it, the kids worked hard, but we lose some points. which won’t come back later. It’s a matter of insisting and working, I think people are happy with their players, and that’s very important,” explained Vicente Moreno.
The next goal. Espanyol, Vicenre Moreno’s former team. “I was there for two years and I like them very much. It’s my first time as a rival coach and I want to win, although I know it’s very difficult. We will enjoy the visit, but there is a demand to win,” he said.
