"I am satisfied with the work of the players"

The coach recognizes it was a match with few opportunities

Espanyol obtained a point on their visit to La Rosaleda and continues to expand its good run of results. At the end of the match, Espanyol coach Constantin Galca, valued positivity the work of his team.

 "I am pleased because the players have worked hard. We could have taken the three points, but there have been certain actions where we could have lost them. It was a game of hard work, few spaces and opportunities. I'm happy also because Málaga had scored many goals in strategy, but we defended well these actions”, he said. Galca said that "we could have done more, but a point is a point." In this sense he said that "if we add three points at home next week, this will be very important."

On the penalty, the Espanyol’s coach didn’t want to enter into any kind of discussion and said that the referee decides "those situations; It is what it is. He is close to the action and decides whether or not a penalty has been. I have not seen the action clearly”, he said.

Finally and on the absence of Ruben Duarte and Hernan Perez against Atletico Madrid has said that "are very important players, but those who enter they will do well."
