Gerardo Martinotechnician Inter Miamiassured on Saturday that many of his players “experienced a more difficult situation” than his team, after losing 1-2 at Atlanta United and having to play for a place in the second round of the MLS ‘playoffs’ in third game.
“We have an advantage in the hierarchy in the team, with many players who have gone through more difficult situations than this, although we would like to finish everything now. We are very disappointed with the final result,” said Martino at the press conference after the meeting. The Argentine coach considered that his team had made “merits to win the game” in Atlanta and that there was optimism on the bench even in the event of penalties.
Martino admitted he doesn’t consider the MLS playoff rules to be entirely correct, which provide for an unusual best-of-three series that could potentially allow a team to advance without winning a game, even if the rival this will win one of them.
“It seems unfair to us that Orlando who is undefeated can be left out, it is good that the teams that entered the postseason from the bottom were given a chance, but it is also true that it is not good a team that does not The win can eliminate one that won a game,” Martino said.
