Oltra asks that Milla Alvéndiz not whistle them anymore

José Luis Oltra, CF Fuenlabrada coach, publicly requested after the defeat on Wednesday against UD Las Palmas (2-1) that ehe match referee, Luis Mario Milla Alvéndiz, do not whistle them anymore, and not because of the decisions made, but because of the way they address their players.

“If I talk about the referee, it seems that I am going to divert attention, but if possible, that he no longer arbitrates us, not because of the decisions, because we all make mistakes, but because of the attitude When it comes to addressing my footballers, because of how he speaks to them and threatens them, that is what hurts me, his way of addressing, not refereeing, “he lamented.

Oltra added that in his opinion the play was not a penalty which was the second goal for Las Palmas, just before the break, and he did not want to assess the expulsion of the central Diéguez, for seeing two yellow cards in a row, for protesting, in the 51st minute.

The Valencian coach made self-criticism and acknowledged that the first part of his team was “very poor”, giving an image “not consistent to the potential of this team “, offering” many facilities “and” chasing shadows “.

He further clarified that the approach was “to press high”, but they were not successful, and although in the second half the team had “reaction and caste”, scoring even with one less player, they were already going “in tow “on a night in which” everything turned upside down. “
