“We must forget about this and focus on our goal”

Turn the page. Or “forget about this”, said in the words of Vicente Moreno, who was very clear in his press appearance after Espanyol's elimination against Osasuna 0-2 at the RCDE Stadium. “You have to know how to differentiate and you have to focus on our objective clearly, which is the League. We must forget about this. Neither by winning nor losing we would have achieved anything in the League,” he reflected after the match.

For Moreno the match was not so unequal, but Espanyol paid dearly for their mistakes. “We came out with a good feeling to the match, I think we were better than them, but our first mistake became their goal. Then, in an unfortunate action, it was 0-2. That threw us off. The game was difficult due to our state of mind. We tried to win the second half but it was not possible, “he said.

Moreno made a typical Copa line-up, only with some foray like David López or Javi Puado as headlines the week before against Castellón. The technician is placed as responsible: “Everything that happens is conditioned by the coach's decision. We are always exposed to any decision. I do not give importance to having two mistakes, but they ended in a goal and that is why it is given more importance.”

Likewise, the Valencian coach confirmed that “Lluís and Miguelón they were left out due to physical problems. “We will have to wait to know more details of his ailment, especially that of the right back, who had established himself in that position ahead of Óscar Gil.

“In the soul this is energy”

Jagoba Arrasate, ratified this week despite the fact that Osasuna is in the relegation zone, left RCDE Stadium very comforted by the good match of his team: “We were solvent. It suits us. Everyone did a good job. It is very difficult to win 0- 2 in this field, “commented the Osasuna coach. “At the emotional level this is energy. It reinforces our collective spirit. Everything becomes more beautiful, to see what awaits us,” commented Arrasate.

Going deep into the match, the coach congratulated himself that Osasuna solved the match in the first half, and considers that this is the way forward for the future. “We were solvent, we finished the first to zero which is important. It is the best way to prepare for the games. We have to add players for the cause.” He did not want to detract from Espanyol's merits, since “it is a demanding rival, as if it were a league match”.
