Diego
Martinez, Granada coach, assured this Sunday at a press conference, after winning 0-1 at Getafe, that his team is capable of adapting to various styles and stressed that, although they would have wanted to wear “the suit” of PSV, against the Madrid team it was not worth it.

“We love to compete, Pomegranate is able to put on different outfits. We like the suit more Eindhoven, but that was not valid today. The wear we have noticed in the second part. We supply it with order, attitude, commitment and resistance. I don't want to stay with that, I want to keep that we are capable of competing and finding solutions, “he declared.

For Martinez, he Getafe It is a team that “forces” to adapt to the rival and made it clear that its players have “much merit” for having competed in a very “different” match from the one they played in the Netherlands against PSV Eindhoven.

“We came from wear and tear, it was time to suffer. They squeeze you a lot and any rebound can cause problems. I feel very proud, the week is one of honors. Not because of the results, but because of how we competed. In the end everything is positive. at a time that demands the maximum, “he said.

Regarding the penalty that gave Granada victory, he limited himself to saying that “there is a referee and a VAR” who are the ones who “decide”.

He also spoke about the style of the Getafe: “Play like this, only they are their characteristics. The merit of Getafe is that they have demanded so much of us that we have had to adapt. Nobody likes that it is so stuck. The weather did not help, in the end they are circumstances. There have been actions within that intensity, there was a way to achieve victory. Getafe he had an impressive streak, he hadn't conceded a single goal here. “

Finally, he referred to the streak of Granada with which it has settled at the top of the table: “It seems incredible to me, two weeks ago they asked me if I was afraid to see Espanyol. Neither at that moment nor now are we going to look at the classification. It costs a world and a life each game to make evaluations of this type “.

“The more we add now, the better, that helps us to continue progressing. Not two weeks ago we thought we were going to descend and now we have another thought. The objective is to go step by step, we must go to the maximum, it costs a lot. To continue. On Thursday we have another battle. We have to pick up the players with a spoon, “he concluded.
