The Chilean specialist noted the strong first half performed by his team, but confessed that injuries became a key factor in the second half of the game.
“What happened in the second half? We had a wonderful first half: they scored a goal, had a few more good moments. But in the second half, we were severely affected by injuries, including ABDE. After that, we could no longer pose a danger to Chelsea, and they began to create it for us.
The fans were incredible – both during the match and after it. It hurts the most: what we couldn’t give them this trophy. We qualified to the European Cups next season, but I have to say – injuries have been very hurt today. Against such a powerful team as Chelsea, it is always noticeable.
Can we go to the Europa League finals next year? For Betis, it is a great achievement to Europe and the finals. We can’t even dream of the Europa League finals now. We have spent a very good season – unfortunately, we did not win this trophy, but tomorrow we will start working on the team for the next season. We played the first half well, in the second half they were better and scored goals that brought them victory in the finals. The season we went to Europe and reached the finals is a step forward, and I am sure that the fans will agree with it.
How do the players feel? Of course, they are devastated. We could not keep what we did in the first half. We created problems through ABDE, but he dislodged the ankle, and we had to replace it. Nevertheless, we have to be proud of our game – everything else in this sport depends not only on us, ” – quotes the words of Manuel Pellegrini. UEFA official website.
