The coach of the Eibar, José Luis Mendilibar, regretted the mistakes that helped the Atlético de Madrid won this Thursday from Ipurua (1-2), so he could not be satisfied despite the good work during much of the game.
“The work has been well done but what counts are the goals. How it has been hurts us, not because it was a penalty or not, we are attacking, a clearance from them catches us that they cannot reach the area, and anything can happen ”, he said.
The technician thus referred to the bad clearance, in the first goal, and the penalty against, in the second of Luis Suarez, as a great slab for the Basques. “Those mistakes mark the game for you, it's the same as the first goal, a bad clearance and they tie us. Almost all goals come from mistakes, but against these teams if we make mistakes they have decisive players who do not forgive, “he said.

In addition, Mendilibar justified that his goalkeeper Dimitrovic take the penalties, as you did with 1-0, if the others do not get them. “All the others have failed, we have to do something, he will shoot until he fails,” he finished.
