Javier Aguirre, Mallorca coach, said after the goalless draw against Deportivo Alavés in Son Moix that his team was “difficult to win” at home and regretted the image it gave in the first 45 minutes.
“We entered the field with a cruel fear, I don’t know why, if there are many Leagues left. Fear of what? I ask myself,” Aguirre said into the Dazn microphones.
In the press conference after the game, “Vasco” insisted on denouncing his team’s lack of attitude in the first half against the Vitorian team.
“We were very tied, nervous, we didn’t make three passes in a row. Alavés, without almost anything for us, was better. We talked in the locker room and in the second half the team was more recognizable and tried for success,” he argued.
Aguirre admitted that the lack of success in the opposing area “continues to condemn them.”
“The team was trying, but things didn’t work out. The goal eluded (Cyle) Larin and the one who felt it the most was him, who stayed in the locker room very depressed. He and the other players have to go on and on, arm yourself with the patience to plug it in sometimes,” said the Mallorcan coach.
Aguirre emphasized his team’s play in the second half: “We played with a lot of personality, we didn’t give up, like against Cádiz (last day), and their goalkeeper (Antonio Sivera) made some very good saves. – save.”
He admitted that Mallorca were “losing some points” after fifteen games and with respect to his future on the bench after a bad start to the championship, he announced that he would continue to lead the technical direction of the vermillions until the this.
