Matratsniki won thanks to an own goal.

“We started very well, creating three chances in ten minutes – Llorente, Nico Gonzalez and Baena could have scored. If we had been more composed in front of goal, it would have given us some peace.
The situation started to get complicated, especially after Marcos’ injury. The team did not adapt well to what was happening on the field.
In the second half, the substitutes gave us energy and pep – exactly what the game demanded and what the team needed. I’m happy with Raspadori because after that game with his goal in the Champions League I didn’t give him enough playing time to show what he deserves. He waited for his chance. He played very well on the right wing, he had a chance to score and he did a lot of work. We must continue to move in this direction, with humility and faith.
The team works very well. We go in the table as we want. We need luck, which is also a part of the game, and for it to be on our side. If it wasn’t for today’s own goal, I would have been asked other questions,” Simeone said.
