The head coach of Girona, Michel Sanchez, summed up the result of the match against Real (1:1) in the 14th round of La Liga, calling the point gained important, but one that does not relieve the tension in the fight for survival.

According to the specialist, his team played two different halves:

“It was very difficult for us in the second half, Real dominated a lot. We played too low, we didn’t have enough strength, but they have fantastic attacking potential and could have scored the second goal at any time.”

Michel noted that the substitutions allowed the team to make several dangerous transitions, but it was not possible to implement them:

“With Joel Roca, we could have done a lot more. We had to be patient and withstand their pressure. We did that and we’re happy with the point.”

Separately, the coach commented on controversial episodes with possible penalties in favor of the Madrid club:

“There was a violation on Vinicius – it’s a penalty. But in the case of Rodrigo, there was almost no contact. He himself starts to fall after the feint. For such an episode, the penalty is too much.”

After 14 rounds, Girona have 12 points and remain in 18th position in the La Liga table, continuing their fight to get out of the relegation zone.
