Head Coach comments after the match
Head Coach Poyatos: "First of all, I take responsibility for this loss, and I believe the players did exactly what I asked them to do on the pitch. In the first half, even though we continued to want to keep the ball a little longer, I think we created more chances than our opponents and had chances to take the lead. In the second half, I think Reysol continued to have more possession, but we were able to control the ball well, and although we had few chances for either team, Reysol took the lead. After that, I think we created some threatening opportunities in front of the goal, but we weren't able to convert them."
Q: "It seemed like you changed the system a little bit in the middle of the first half. What was the reason for that and what was the effect?"
Head Coach Poyatos: "That's right. When the opponents had the ball, they often made advances from the outside, so we wanted to prevent that, and I think that change helped us control the game better, especially in the second half."
Q: You said that you hadn't expected the team to lose possession of the ball in the first half, but what was it that you couldn't take the ball from them, and what kind of instructions did you give them at halftime?
Head Coach Poyatos: "Yes. I think it's a matter of simply running. I thought that the intensity of the front line players needed to be strong and run hard to apply pressure, and we made that adjustment at halftime."
