Girona’s coach, Miguel Ángel Sánchez ‘Míchel’, stated after drawing 1-1 against Betis that his team had “a great game against a great rival” at the Benito Villamarín, although he regretted that “in the last half hour” he “lacked physicality and ball” to maintain the advantage of a goal that had escaped him in the final minutes.
“Without suffering, we were not comfortable. We have not finished and we have given them wings. It can be said that the tie is fair. We lacked finishing against an opponent that defends very well and we haven’t found the last pass to make it 0-2,” Míchel acknowledged at a press conference.
The Madrid coach admitted who had “strange turnovers” in this Girona and did not elaborate on whether conceding a goal so late is bad luck because “the game lasts as long as it lasts and also” the people from Girona have won games “at the last minute”, although he assured that “Today was not a question of changes,” but rather a lack of “mental gasoline.”
Míchel insisted on highlighting the “good image given” against a Betis that “has a great team” and that, as he recalled, “they have not lost here yet in the League”, while saying goodbye to a calendar year in which Girona has added “75 points”, with a “first part of the season” that “has been incredible”, so “you can’t ask the team for more.”
