The goalkeeper and captain of Espanyol, Diego Lópezstated after the thrashing suffered by his team in Villarreal (5-1) that “the face of shame” falls on him because of the image offered. “We have not competed and we must have the courage to accept it. We have not been in the field and the only good thing is that we have only lost three points & rdquor ;, he indicated before the Movistar microphones at the end of the match.
“It is clear that there was a great team opposite, but we have not maintained defensive security and we’ve made some other mistakes. We must apologize to all those who have come from Barcelona to see the meeting & rdquor ;, he pointed out.
Diego López admitted that away from home they don’t compete as they should and that now they have to think about facing the next game at home against Getafe in the best possible way. “It is time to show things in the field and not with words”, added the Espanyol goalkeeper, who, despite this result, said that he believes in his team and that there is time to improve.
