The Barça coach recognized that ElPozo Murcia deserved to win (2-1) this Thursday, since “he played his game”
Despite conceding the first defeat of the course, the coach highlighted the intensity of his players and the chances generated
After losing the first game of the season at the ElPozo Murcia court (2-1), the coach of the barca, Jesus Velascobelieved that his team played a “good game in general” and generated plenty of chances to score points, and blamed the defeat on “completion failed”.
“We have found a rival who, as we had budgeted, came out with great intensity not to let us play. They found themselves with a lucky first goal, the second was a great goal, and from 2-0 onwards, little by little we have been taking the face of the game. We have dominated despite the fact that they have had occasion. We have had many more ourselves”, started the coach from Toledo.
Velasco valued that the lack of success before the break was decisive: “In the game we have dominated but We haven’t managed to reach the break with any goals. That has greatly marked the future of the party. The second part a little more of the same. A very intense game, very complicated to inhabit. It has been a great game for the viewer. In the end our mistakes have allowed ElPozo to win it.
“ElPozo deserved the victory, because when a team wins they deserve the victory. They have made their match. They have put themselves ahead, they have defended, they have gone out to the cons that they could. They are a very dangerous team, but we have created much more. It is also normal that when you are losing you throw yourself on top of the rival”, continued the coach of the barca.
For Velascothe lack of aim was the decisive factor: “We have scored a goal, when we had been scoring five or six, and that is the difference, at our completion. Juanjo has been very good, as usual. We have played a good game in general, the finish has failed us. I have seen the team plugged in, with a high level of intensity, a match of power to power between two teams that on paper are going to be up there fighting for the titles”.
