Statements by Beto Company

“In the first half, even though we were 2-0 down and we weren’t like in the second half, we dominated in what we wanted to do but not in those key aspects to win a match against Unionistas. We knew about the long throw-in and we had worked on it, we knew about the situations of loss and counterattack and we had foreseen them... but sometimes this success or failure is what limits you”.

“In the first half, on an offensive level, without being excellent by any means, we positioned ourselves in three-quarters of the field with some ease and, especially on the left wing with Josep Cerdà, we positioned ourselves dangerously near the area, but we didn’t know how to control the situations that hurt us”.

“In the second half, taking risks, we tilted the match. The goal gave us some hope because we saw that the field was increasingly sloping. We had Luismi's chance to equalize but with the score at 3-1, obviously, the game is over”.

“[The difference between the first and second half] I think it is also determined by the opposing team. At the beginning the opponents are well positioned, they have a very clear game plan, they have a lot of energy and are able to match you, be brave, help each other... and you have to be very precise. But part of the success of the second half also has to do with the wear and tear that the opponents suffer. But it is clear that we have to improve these situations. We have already said that the infinite bullets of the comebacks do not exist and we have to close the goal”.

“In the second half we put Lauti on the center to play with two strikers, we took out a defender, we were left with three, and thus we overcrowded the central positions of the attack. Here we did sink them a little more because, in addition, the area was more populated”.
