They have put us in the face with the 0-1, the tie leads to a different game and after the expulsion it is another one because we went down 20 meters, We lose our way and it was very difficult to contain a rival like Athletic”, he reflected.
Sanchez Flowers highlighted the “enormous” match made by the goalkeeper David Soria that “it will come in handy” in a final stretch of the championship in which the azulón team will try to seal permanence.
“Athletic used the field well, they finished off, but sometimes you come across situations like today’s in which the rival goalkeeper aborts you one after another. It’s hard to explain how one of those balls can’t go in”, he admitted.
Finally, on the expulsion of Basinregretted that a footballer “who barely kicks in three games has had two expulsions” and also that “some situations are reviewed so quickly (in the VAR) and in others it takes so long. I am one more within the group of bewildered in football “, he concluded.
