Axel Witsell spoke to the media after the goalless draw between Atletico Madrid and the Real Betis.
match rating
“We return home with a point. We know that it is not easy to play here. The first half was difficult for us, especially with the ball because we did not have possession, control, or the second ball. Defensively we are strong. The second half was better and more we have a chance. In the end, of course we are not happy. Better a point than nothing”.
Heat
“It’s not an excuse because it’s for both teams. We can’t talk about the heat. It’s not easy to play in this condition.”
Low
“Koke is missing, which is very important. With Koke we could have played better offensively in the first half.”
Central
“Now I have my mind set on being a centre-back. I feel good in this position and I have no problems as a centre-back”.
Defending
“A game like this is tough. It’s important to be strong in defense and not suffer. One point now and work harder this week to try to beat Rayo.”
