The Villarreal head coach underlined the positive image shown against the league leaders
Satisfied, but not with the result. Villarreal head coach Unai Emery underlined that his team put in a good performance against Atlético de Madrid despite the final 0-2 result. “We can’t avoid the result. From there, you look at how you want to get a result. We put in an extremely complete performance, and we just lacked accuracy in both areas. That’s the path to follow. In the first half, we had a lot to control and we had a few clear chances. They scored in an isolated action. In the second half, we started with a few doubts, and then they scored their second. From then on, in the last 30 minutes, we created a lot of chances, but we didn’t take them,” he analysed.
For the Basque manager, this result shouldn’t lower the team’s morale: “If you lose like that, you need to look beyond the result. We did a lot of things very well. We had control, you could see our ideas and we continue moving forward. We need to be more competitive in a few details throughout the 90 minutes.
