Serbian Marko dmitrovic, goalkeeper of the Eibar, explained this Thursday, after the defeat against Atlético de Madrid, that the idea of him taking the penalty that he turned into a goal comes from the coaching staff, although he expressed that it is “a shame” that that goal has not served “for anything” to his team.
“The idea comes from Mendilibar. I think he has been telling me for a long time that he was going to take a penalty. Edu the last one failed. Before the game against Levante he told me that if there was a penalty he was going to take it and it was my turn today, but it's a shame that it was useless. He knew Jan thought he was going to cross it. That's why I threw to the other side, ”he stated in statements to‘Movistar'After the match.
The goalkeeper was “not happy at all” with the defeat. “We played a very serious game, very good, even up to minute 85. The last five minutes we have been more confused. They had a chance before the penalty. It's a shame. Atleti squeezes until the last second. With our mistake they take the three points ”, he said.
“We knew we couldn't leave any options. We cannot make any mistakes, because they penalize him and it was. From two mistakes, from two individual errors, we have conceded two goals and they are not the only ones this season. We have to correct the errors that can be corrected, like those of today, “he added.
