Vicente Moreno pointed out that the team always play to win and regrets not picking up the two points
Espanyol ended up adding a draw to their points in the match between CD Lugo after equalising the first goal by the home team. The blue and white manager Vicente Moreno pointed out that “we always play to win. It feels like we missed out on picking up the two points, although it was important to stop the roll of two defeats. The result doesn’t reflect the work that the players put into the match. It’s just a pity that we couldn’t score another goal.”
Moreno mentioned that “the first goal came early and from a set piece. It's true that we managed to score a goal that was disallowed as offside. After the goal, we had a really clear opportunity when RDT hit the post. The team created chances.” The coach continued by saying “we are going to keep competing to improve our current position. The situation isn’t bad, and although we’ve earned praise to be better, we must put our effort into making this happen.”
As for the match versus Mallorca, he pointed out that “we are treating it as a very serious one. We’re playing the top two sides and it’s always important to win that match. Winning won’t amount to much, but we have to put our effort into winning.”
