Koke Resurrección, Atlético captain, attended Movistar to assess the defeat of his team against Real Madrid, the first in the league since February 1.
The streak of 26 games is broken without losing.
A difficult defeat, we have not been us at any time. In the second half we went forward. The game could have changed if Lemar's team came in, but no… The league is long, we have to continue and we are up there.
What has been missing?
Read the game better. They have played better, more intense especially in the first half. The set piece goal is a detail that marks a match for you. It is time to see what we have not done well and improve.
The plans have not come out, neither the initial nor the changes …
Well, we also almost tied the game, it's football and it's details. They have seized the details and won.
Are they still candidates for the title?
We go day by day, now we have the Cup and we only have to look at that. It is you who say favorites, candidates …
The other day Saúl and Suárez left angry; this time João …
I have not seen it, but we all want to play the 90 'always. There are many games, there are five changes and a great squad. We can all play and we have to take advantage of the opportunities.
Correa: “It's time to forget and think about what is coming”
Clear defeat. “I think we had a bad game, we have to forget and think about what is coming.”
Weak performance. “We are having many games, many minutes, but it is no excuse. We came with the illusion of taking the three points, but now we have to forget about this game and think about what is coming.”
Beautiful: “Maybe if Lemar's had entered …”
The match: “The team changed the situation in the second half, we dominated and we had chances. Perhaps if Lemar's opportunity had come in, everything would have changed. Above all, we cannot allow ourselves to concede goals from set pieces, which is one of our strengths “.
Future: “We are fine, this continues. We continue to be where we want to be, it is the first defeat of the season, in the League we are at a fantastic level. It was not the game we wanted or the one we had to do, but we will continue in the dynamic and continue fighting for our goals. “
