Voro: "A point is always positive, but we aren't happy with the first half"

The caretaker coach assesses the final game of the LaLiga season

Voro González spoke in a post-match press conference after a goalless draw with SD Huesca at Alcoraz, reacting to the final game of his caretaker coaching stint in charge of the club.

Analysis of the match

“We cannot be happy about the first half. In the first 20 minutes we weren’t able to take the pressure off ourselves. We didn’t get into the opposition area. From the 25th minute onwards, we had a little more the ball. It was a first half in which we couldn’t read the game, against a team that had everything on the line. In the second half we played better. We broke into the area more and we had some chances. We had opportunities to score. We tried to keep organised at the back and win the game with a counterattack. A point away from home is always positive, but we leave here unhappy about the first half.”

Reviewing his four games in charge

“The idea was to win a game as soon as possible, and that was achieved against Real Valladolid. After that, we tried to take advantage of the benefits of our system and fine-tune some things. We won two of the four games, drew another and suffered one defeat. We have had a time of growth, until today when we had a weak first half and a better second half. This season is over and now we have to think about next year.”

Changes to the starting XI

“We went with Lato. We knew what he could offer us and he had a good game. There was no problem with Gayà.”
