GARCÍA PIMIENTA: "IF YOU MAKE MISTAKES AGAINST A TEAM LIKE ATLÉTICO, IT'S WHAT CAN HAPPEN"

García Pimienta spoke defeat against Atlético: "The team gave their all. There were phases of good play, generating chances considering the opponent we had in front of us. Perhaps that lack of effectiveness and the desire to win at the end made the match break down a little. It could have gone either way and in that counter, the quality of Atlético's players was crucial. It's a pity because we gave everything. At times we were good, at others not so good, and if you make mistakes against teams like Atlético, it's what can happen." 

As for injury news, he said that "Rubén Vargas has a hamstring injury. Tomorrow he will undergo tests to find out the extent and the time he will be out. Pedrosa came off with a hip injury. He knows himself well because he has already had injuries. Let's hope it's nothing and that he can be available for Friday's game." 

Now, it's time to focus on Mestalla: "We have done some things right and some things wrong, that's why we haven't won. We have to recover well and give everything on Friday in a match that will be very demanding. With the commitment and attitude of the players, we can be close to victory. We have three consecutive defeats, which hurts a lot and we can only change that by winning. We will go to Mestalla looking to win."
