Marcelino was frustrated with Villarreal’s lack of cutting edge in both boxes
Villarreal CF head coach Marcelino García Toral appeared before the media at a press conference after the 3-0 defeat against UD Las Palmas
These were the most important statements he made: “I’m very pleased with the way we played:
Assessment of the match
“It’s a difficult match to explain. In the first half we came close to recovering from their first goal, but we couldn’t do it. In the second half they scored the second goal very early and on a counter-attack they scored the third. I think that today they were very effective in the penalty area and we weren’t, because we also had clear chances to score.”
The team’s situation
“We are in this situation because we have very little points. There are 18 games left and we have to think about the next one. We shouldn’t be scared. We have to be more effective in our area and, with a positive attitude, keep working. I have confidence in these players and we’re going to get through this.”
