“We have an effectiveness problem”

Marcelino justified the tie in the lack of effectiveness against the rival goal and the great game played by David Soria, the true architect of Getafe leaving San Mamés with a point. “The team shot 22 times and generated up to seven or eight clear scoring chances. With that, it is normal to win. We had a big mistake as soon as we started, it happened again, our staging was not the best and then David Soria it was the best. I have nothing to object to teamwork and looking for victory”, stated the Athletic coach.

“We have an effectiveness problem that has been reflected today. I am satisfied with how the team worked, but there have been many interruptions, so it is difficult to pick up the rhythm of the game. The rival interpreted it because they had one less player, we did not have the patience to give the last pass and score the second goal”, he added.

What is the reason for the bad start of the match? “It is difficult to explain. We insist a lot that we play in our field and we have to lock up the rival, but they made us play 0-1. Madrid scored two goals for us as soon as we started and so did Rayo. It is as if we needed to enter the game more intense or more concentrated, or both at the same time. It is something that we have to improve, try to leave with the best possible motivation. We talked about it among ourselves, it’s a shame because playing with the score against us means making a double effort”, he explained.

The Asturian added that it is not the first time that they have not won a game despite having many opportunities to score. “I remember the first half against Sevilla and we were losing 0-1. Against Levante we were 0-0 and we had very clear chances. We have an efficiency problem that is there. The team has been aggressive, with a good level of play, but sometimes we rushed and we were unable to transform superiority into play and set pieces to win. We have possibly been one of the teams that has created the most chances for Getafe since Quique is your coach. His first shot was a goal, but I have nothing to object to the game and the desire to win that the team has shown throughout the match”, said the man from Careñes.
