The Frenchman Rudi García, coach of Naples, confessed that this Tuesday’s defeat against the real Madrid (2-3) in the Champions League does not seem fair and that The “tie would have been the most normal”.

The result does not seem fair to me, the tie was more normal watching the game, the statistics. We started well, with a goal from a corner kick worked hard these days. There has been a bad construction of ours and we have fit. “Madrid was able to enter the center of the field and I didn’t like the second half,” he explained at a press conference.

“Carlo (Ancelotti) will talk about the penalty and we will talk about the corner kick, so we won’t talk about the referee’s decisions. I feel bad about the result,” he added.

Despite the defeat, the coach was positive about the good performance of his team.

It is a bitter defeat, but Naples now has certainties. I liked the reaction of the public at the end, they are fans who know football. It is always difficult to lose, luckily there are four games left, I think that the double duel against the Germans will be decisive. We have done many good things, but we have to improve,” he commented.

“We have played Real Madrid face to face. We have to believe in ourselves and have confidence. When you face one of the best players in the world, you find yourself with players of the same level. We could have done better after the draw,” he said.

In addition, he spoke of the high level of the Ostigard-Natan central couple, substitutes throughout the season until the injuries of Rrahmani and Juan Jesús; and the penalty taker, who was once again Zielinski instead of Osimhen.

The idea is to have players to choose from. I very much agree with what Natan and Ostigard -which scored the opening goal- they work well. Regarding the penalty, I don’t think Zielinski is always the taker. As I have already explained, for the penalty war there is a coach’s list. “The first one on the list decides whether to leave it to someone else,” he said.
