I believe luck will change and the sooner the better. Wasting time complaining about things we can’t control.. We won’t tell anyone what happened to the referees because it is seen. Because of the way we work, we don’t get the treatment we deserve.”

Pedro Bigas, «Football treats us cruelly. We can’t do anything against arbitral awards. This team will not stop and will never give up.

Roger Martí pronounces himself in similar terms: «There are things that are difficult to deal with. The team got angry and deserved the win And we must continue to fight the same way. It’s the only way.”
