García Pimienta: “I think we have not been inferior to Valencia”

The coach of UD Las Palmas, Xavi García Pimienta, positively assessed the sensations and the game of his team in Mestalla. He regrets not having scored any points, and warns that “arrival and depth are lacking near the opponent’s goal.” Only Pejiño shot on goal once, in 93.

The Catalan, satisfied with the two debuts within the yellow squad (Mika Marble incumbent before the Guinean’s replacement Saul Coco and Julián Araújo replacing Álvaro Lemos at halftime of the match), he explained at the end the variety of players in the different demarcations on the field and objected that “whoever is better that week will play each day”.

Regarding the rival of the match, García Pimienta congratulated Valencia on their second consecutive victory, unrelated to the possibility of being direct rivals for the end of the season. “I think that Valencia is a big club, and they already have six points,” admitted Pimienta despite emphasizing the good game of his team at the Che stadium.

From the dubious penalty awarded by the VAR after a handball by Javi Muñoz, Pimienta did not want to enter into arbitration controversies of any kind and except for distances: «Nothing was seen on the bench, the VAR called the main referee who did not see anything either. The referee has considered that it is a penalty and nothing more to say.

The most notable thing that the UD coach remarked was the change that the team made after Valencia’s goal, “a more offensive team has been seen and with arrival and I think that’s the way to go.” Pepper spoke of “compensated staff” when he was asked about the latest additions to the yellow entity. He did not close the door on other last-minute arrivals, but he is sure that with what he has “they will grow throughout the season.”

The arrival of a forceful 9 such as Sory Kaba, the reference above that the team needs, was included in their plans, focused on “specific profiles” such as the recently signed player, who had the detail, without being called up and with just one day under the orders of Pimienta, to go to cheer on his new team in Valencia.
