The Elche coach, the Argentine Jorge Almirón, described this Sunday as a “tough defeat” the one suffered by his team in the Betis field (3-1), in a match in which the Elche team accused the “physical and mental wear” of a first part very well played by the rival.
“They made us run in the first half, we couldn't get the ball back. That causes physical and mental exhaustion, andhe game was tough even though Edgar kept us going with his saves. It is a tough defeat, but we must recover for Friday in the face of the duel against Celta “, Almirón stated in his appearance after the Benito Villamarín match.
The coach of the Elche team admitted that the result “has marked the difference between both teams on the field of game “, although it indicated that it did not expect” a defeat like this “and for that reason it was summoned to” work so that what happened against Betis does not happen again “.
