29/08/2021

The coach was satisfied with how the team played: 'Obviously, there is still room to improve, but that will come with time.'

Sevilla Atlético coach, Paco Gallardo, gave his thoughts following the draw against CE Sabadell in the first game of the Primera RFEF Footers League: 'A point is a good result for us, and the team played well. I'm very satisfied. They are a tough side to come up against, and I'm sure they will be up there competing. We stepped up to the mark. Obviously, there is still room to improve, but that will come with time. It's a good point for us.'

The coach also valued the clean sheet: 'The most important thing is trying to win, but a clean sheet is also very valuable. We have time now to analyse the match, but overall, I'm very happy.' Gallardo also spoke about his team's character to play with a player less against such a tough side: 'They are a very experienced team. We started well, but as time went on we struggled a bit and we couldn't play the football that we wanted to play. Overall, a point is a good result for us.'

The focus now shifts to the next league game: 'This league is wonderful because you can see the development of the players. We will yet again come up against a newly-promoted side. It will be a tough match because they lost against Albacete so they will want to make up for it so we need to be ready. We have a good squad with a lot of talent, and we need to use this.'
