La Liga. Sevilla - Real Madrid 3-0. Coaches' opinions

Coaches' opinions

At a press conference after the match with Sevilla, Madrid head coach Julen Lopetegui admitted his team's mistakes in the lost match, and Pablo Machin was happy for his players and for the game they showed against such a strong opponent.

Julen Lopetegui: "You could say we had a bad match, but Sevilla had a very good one"

About team errors

Sevilla were stronger and deserved to win. We didn't play the match as planned and paid for it in the first half by conceding quick goals. In the second half we equalized and hoped that if we scored we could get back into the game. We scored, but the goal was not counted in the end, after which we missed more chances to score and could not come back. In general, we can say that we had a bad match, and Sevilla a very good one.

On the lack of pressure and aggressiveness

“We were going to press, but it didn’t work out, which is evident from the result: Sevilla surpassed us.”

About Marcelo

"It seems that Marcelo has a gap, but we have to wait for the examination."

About how the team will rise

“When we win, we calmly prepare for the next match, and in this case it will be the same. These things happen in La Liga and will happen to all teams. We have a very demanding match in three days, and we will rise from our knees and prepare as much as we can for it.”

On the impact of awards

“It is clear that the players went to the awards, but we are not going to blame the awards for this - we lost because we were not up to par, including the coach. It seems to me that if the goal had been counted, we would have had more chances. And then we were not lucky to play with ten men ... ".

About away matches

“The team is preparing for away matches with the same attitude as the Bernabeu. I don't think it lacks intensity because the team has character."

On the lost opportunity after Barça's defeat

"I don't look back at other teams: La Liga is long, all teams will have difficult matches."

About the series on "Pisjuan"

“I can't talk about Madrid's bad run at this stadium, I can talk about today's match. We didn't play the way we wanted, and now we have to get up off our knees and prepare for the next matches."

Pablo Machin: "It was a great night from all angles"

About the match

“We must enjoy and remember this evening. Those who have not won often against Madrid will always remember this, but the fans at Pisjuan are used to it. The audience enjoyed the game from the first to the last minute. I am incredibly happy for the players, because they deserved to win with their work, given our problems with injuries.

About the best moments

“We were effective, we didn't let a great opponent show their game, VAR brought justice to the match… As they say, it was a great night in every way, and I hope the Sevilles enjoy this evening. Too bad it didn't fall on a weekend so we could celebrate."

About VAR

“I have always said that this system brings fairness to the game. Mistakes do not go unpunished, but what happened, happened. I am confident that justice will be on Sevilla's side if we do our job of creating chances and scoring."

About the game plan

“It is clear that the players give their all to the maximum, they believe in our style of play, more and more every day. They believe that by playing as a team, we become better. I hope that injuries will worry us less, and now we need to recover and prepare for Eibar.

About the best match of the season

“On the scale of the opponent, probably, yes. Thanks to our game, they began to play worse, and this only happens in a match that is excellent from all sides: we kept the balance, cut off their counterattacks, defended as a whole.
