Mendilibar, Eibar coach spoke of the controversial hand of Sergio Ramos in the Real Madrid area and that the referee Munuera Montero did not indicate a penalty.
Interpretation of the hand of Sergio Ramos: “We have no idea, this week there have been some hand counts and we don't know when it can be whistled and when not. Today the decision has been made in 20 seconds when normally there are two or three with slow image, fast image, one camera, on the other. It has been seen that he has hit him in the hand, Ramos himself has commented that he has hit him in the hand, but since we do not know when it is whistled and I think the referees do not either. We will continue with the same problem all season It will not matter whether there is a VAR or there is no VAR because the problem will continue to exist. “
Then, José Luis Mendilibar, SD Eibar coach, was dissatisfied with the fact that a possible hand from Sergio Ramos was not whistled in the second half of the game in the Real Madrid area.
Despite the defeat at home by 1-3, José Luis Mendilibar said that he was leaving the game with good feelings, since in the first quarter of an hour when they were 0-2 he has put a player to warm up “because it seemed” that they got “six”. “They have done everything perfect, perfect passes, perfect unchecks and it is true that in that first quarter of an hour, even, it has made me doubt whether it was good to play pressing Madrid up. “
The Biscayan coach pointed out that little by little his team has been stealing some balls and that Real Madrid “was not so comfortable” either, to the point that they have come to play “from you to you” and have had chances of ” make the tie “and they have been “alive almost to the end”. Mendilibar said he is happy with how they have played “75% of the game.”
He also confessed that his players have been the first to agree with this way of playing. “At half-time they were the first to say that we could back down, that we had to keep pushing and pressing in the opposite field. For this reason, the feelings are good despite losing at home by 1-3. The thinking of the player, of the footballer is also good, because if the player sees that he is suffering, that he is running and that the rival is much superior, my thinking as a coach is not going anywhere “, concluded the gunsmith technician.
