Diego Martínez and his expulsion in the changing room tunnel: “What are we going to do to him?”

Assessment of the meeting. “It was a good game in general. We recover from a very early goal in a complicated scenario. The team did a good first half, although we did lack some fang and success in the final meters. In the second half, except for the penalty and the last play we competed very well. We deserved the draw. Despite some kickbacks, which are his best quality, the performance has been good. We have lacked forcefulness in the area but we have had good phases, we have managed to counteract the great virtues of Athletic. The team deserved the draw.

Expulsion in the changing room tunnel: “It is a hard emotional moment, that goal at the end so rare has stung because we deserved the draw. We were talking about the throw-in and that's what I can tell you. It's a normal soccer conversation. We understood that the referee had given the throw-in (the one claimed by Roberto Soldado in the play prior to 2-1) for the other side. It's a normal thing in football. Has it led to an expulsion? What can we do”.

Reaction after the maximum punishment stopped by Rui Silva. “The penalty play is very striking and a great save. It was a good game. Then there is the success, being more forceful. Even in the play of our goal, the VAR enters, when we wanted to put that rhythm. In the end the game is marked by the details. But against an opponent in such a good state of confidence, Granada played a great game and we left empty. It's what happens when you come to stages of this type ”.

Message to the dressing room “The emotional hangover must be zero. On Thursday we have another game, we have to feed on good performance. Right now you also have to settle negative emotions. The play of the goal comes from a throw-in that the line marks for one side, the referee for another … Then there is Molina's chance for the 2-2. This is football and unfortunately it has not fallen on our side. But the team line is to be happy ”.
