Celta’s coach, the Portuguese Carlos Carvalhal, directed after the draw in two added to the field of Sevillethat the dismissal in the nineteenth minute of the local Pape Gueye “conditioned the match a lot”.
“To score we need luck which other times we don’t have. It’s a balanced fightI think we got into the game well and then the dismissal affected the match a lot. Sevilla dropped the lines, regrouped, defended with quality and tried to come out on the counterattack. In one of those counterattacks, he took a corner and that’s where the goal came from, which made it more difficult for us”, said the coach of the team from Vigo about the 1-0 with which the first half ended.
After that goal, in the second, “they closed down even more and it was very difficult to penetrate their defensive organization. We tried to improve and help from the bench with some changes to provide more attack force and more presence in the area,” he said.
“We had a ball that hit the post from Paciencia, Sevilla continued to defend very well and with a loose haul, almost in no time, it was 2-0, which I think was unfair at the time From there, we believed until the end, we managed to make it 2-1, we risked everything and we were able to make it 2-2. I’m happy when my players believe until the last second, although it was not a well-played game on our part”, he said.
