technician Elche CF, Sebastian BeccaceceAfter the match, he went to the press room with a serious expression on his face, but he was also optimistic and “I was proud” of his team’s play He stated that they did not deserve the defeat and accepted it by saying “This is football”.

Franjiverde coach said: “It was a very lively match, both teams played very well. I think we deserved to win things, we went ahead twice and the team was calmbut sometimes unpredictable situations arise, such as a bad kick (referring to San Román’s goal kick) and then a match is drawn, which was very positive for us,” he lamented.

Argentinian coach said he left the field of play Mario Gaspar and Aleix FebaThey blamed him: “The forced changes of Mario (Gaspar) and Áleix (Febas) in the last minutes decided the game 3-2 because the team structure was very well established. I felt very comfortable watching the match from outside.. The team came with losses (Josan and Nico Castro) and It’s good for me to see Rodrigo, Carreira, the intensity and the game offer. But sometimes, “Football takes away what you deserve.”Despite reassuring him that “this is the way forward,” he still regretted it.

Beccece stated that “we are facing a great rival that does its job” and said, “We did what it deserved to achieve a positive result in general.”

When asked if the same story was repeated regarding the previous game against Cartagena, where they also allowed them to come back in the second half, he said: “This is football. You win, lose or draw. The important thing is that the style and idea are solid. The boys have tremendous devotion, they give their souls to every ball and there are also cases of reprehensible, unforced errors.” He therefore asked: “They need to be encouraged and these things need to be corrected. I’m proud of what they show on the field, in any environment. Your opponent doesn’t matter. “As the leader of the group, I admire them and what they do is very valuable. Despite all the negativities we experience, we do not make excuses and continue on our way,” he warned.

Elche coach also praised the play of Rodrigo Mendoza and Carreira: “Rodrigo played as if he had been in the First League for a hundred years.. Carreira, who only played one match, looked as if he was playing all the time. “This shows that they are well trained and have a group connection.”

He is confident that his team’s morale will remain intact as he looks ahead to next Tuesday’s match. “We must see many positive things in the pain and despair of not getting what we deserve.. We are on a good track. Of course, we will strengthen the squad during the half-time, because it is something we need, it has been discussed and we will do it. I’m proud of what the football players did. Then defeat always creates pain. You have to get stronger and that’s the mentality the group has.. “We came from defeat and managed to capitalize on a great first half and second half, we didn’t deserve what happened to us but this is football and we have to accept it.”

Finally, when asked if he maintained what he had previously said about Oviedo being a promotion candidate, he replied: “This is a very equal Union and everything is very equal and history and today say that. “We’ll be there too.”.
