After the accident on the Vallecas lawn, in which Sergi Darder ended up with his head bandaged and Fran Mérida expelled, problems continued for Espanyol at Vicente Moreno’s surreal press conference. The Valencian coach had to interrupt his speech due to problems with the microphone, which was about to prevent him from continuing with the explanations of the meeting.
Before that, he did not elaborate too much on the reasons for defeat. “The line is very fine between winning, drawing or losing“He summarized.” The assessment is negative. There are even moments, others in which they surpassed us and others in which we were better. In the end we had the two clearest chances of the match. We came to a difficult field and the game was not going to be easy, we already knew it, “he said.
Asked if the team, as happened at the Camp Nou, is not capable of taking a step forward until it is seen against the ropes, Vicente Moreno denied that analysis. “That reading is the easy one. There are factors that determine what happens. It conditions the result and the rival. You have to see in which areas they play. The slogan is the same, to overcome the rival and win the match“, he stressed and added that” Rayo has a performance at home. I think we were close. We have to think about the next game, in recent times everything we have played has won against us. You have to win the next one at home and keep adding “.
Although the Ray found depth on the right side of Espanyol, the coach did not give too much importance to that fact: “We know the virtues that the Ray has. It was studied, there were moments when they made more danger, but they were not actions of an exaggerated danger. We needed to be more calm, to play for a longer time closer to his goal, “he commented. And he did not want to talk about Embarba:” I do not make individual evaluations. There are good moments and others less good, like all “.
