Julen Lopetegui, disappointed but defiant, speaks to Amazon. “It is a frustrating night … we deserved much more … we had 31 shots in the opposite box … 20 very close to the goal … normally you have to win this match … but we did not score … we suffered … in the first half we did very, very well … many chances … but football is about goals … in the second half we lost our calm a little bit … a frustrating, hard day … maybe we have to remember this day as a way to build a new situation … to play as we did today, normally we win the match … tomorrow we are looking for the next challenge, knowing we can change the situation … I think we are able to do it … the players want to win for them, for me, for the club … sometimes football is not easy to explain … the next match is the most important … we have to be focused against Wolves in our stadium to win.”
