The Betis coach, the Chilean Manuel Pellegrini, admitted on Wednesday that he “wanted to qualify for the Europa League here today, with the public”, which was not possible due to the defeat of the lowest yield against Getafe.
Pellegrini was ironic, after all, by pointing out that “qualifying for Europe is considered a failure”, but he emphasized the difficulty of facing “teams playing relegation” and suggested of “closed games” chosen for the corner that preceded the visitor’s goal “and the expulsion” of bético German Pezzella. “Then, in the second half, we had some clear options that we didn’t convert”, summed up the Betic coach.
The coach from Santiago commented, on this particular step, that he “It looks like the Getafe player has his head down” before Pezzella’s kick, although “it could have been a relegation: it’s worrying to have fifteen relegations” in 36 days, although “a lot is responsible” for Betis itself, he pointed out.
In any case, Pellegrini emphasized that “among the registration problems” at the beginning of the season “and those fifteen dismissals, it has a lot of merit” to certify a third consecutive classification for European competition, an unprecedented mark in the history of Betis.
béticos are sixth and need another win to ensure their presence in the european leagueThat’s why Pellegrini said that “nobody in the team is thinking of just qualifying for Conference League“.
