"Defeat is always painful"
Vicente Moreno acknowledges that the team was not very successful in the collective aspect
RCD Espanyol coach, Vicente Moreno, has acknowledged that the defeat against Girona has left him with "a bad and negative feeling", and added that the squad is "annoyed because we wanted to win the game". "We did not play the best game in the collective aspect, but that is the responsibility of the coach", he insisted.
Moreno pointed out that “this is the second week that this has happened. We had the opportunity to score 2-0, but the game got out of our hands. We are annoyed, but we have to think about the next game. It is time to look at the things we didn't do well, which are many, and improve them”.
The Espanyol coach stressed that we knew it was a "very complicated" match despite the opposition's losses to injury. "Defeat is always painful, because we always want to win, compete... We are Espanyol, and that means we have certain standards. We didn't close the game because we weren't able to define the three actions. It's not common, but it has happened to us two games in a row”, he stressed.
