Óscar Fernández:”We’re beaten up and hurt for the defeat, but we must learn and keep taking steps forward”

VCF Mestalla head coach, Óscar Fernández, talked with VCF Media in post-match press conference to assess the late 0-1 home defeat to UE Olot on matchday 2 of the second phase in the play-off for safety.

“It’s the toughest defeat of all.  There was nothing going on. They were dominating on the ball as we expected and we were comfortable sitting back without conceding any chances at the back and they make it 0-1  from a throw-in which is something we we’d been working on in training throughout  the week. It’s a tough defeat because we didn’t play well.

We must learn from the defeat and carry on working to go to Prat to come away with all three points. It’s true that we’re beaten up and hurt but we can’t hide the reality. We must must keep taking steps forward in terms of the development process.

We’re going to go to Prat to try to do things well and come away with all three points”.
