LUGO 1 AMOREBIETA 1 Velez de Mendizabal The

Amorebieta took a draw at the buzzer, but overall the blues dominated the game and the chances. They paid dearly for Lugo’s set pieces, the best team in the category in terms of strategy. Iñigo Vélez de Mendizabal finished satisfied with the game although regretting that it was not to win: “It would have been totally unfair to leave here defeated. I get the feeling that it’s a shame that the game we played was for a draw”. He underlined the great work of the Blues: “After a corner that we practically gave away, the team has been clearly dominant at times and in play. The goal is good because it shows that we believe until the end and create many chances”.

“We were convinced that we were going to win here, and we saw the game. We did what we had to do to win. Because of the insistence and not stopping believing until the end”, insisted the Amore coach from Gasteiz after the 1-1 draw at Anxo Carro. After the scoring debut of the last to get on the blue boat, Javi Ros, Vélez also analyzed the good work of the signings that are already bearing fruit: “The four that we have brought were the ones we wanted. They have integrated very well. Very happy for Javi, because he hadn’t played for a long time and he scored”.

Precisely, the great protagonist of Amore with his first saving goal with the blue elastic, Javi Ros highlighted: “The team has done a very good job. We have fought to the fullest. A pity that they have put themselves ahead without generating too much for us. The team has not gone out of the script and has continued to insist. We’ve had the reward with the equalizer, which scoring away from home is always important”. After not having played a single minute with Zaragoza this season, Ros is already beginning to prove his worth: “Very good feelings. Happy for the team and on a personal level. I come from a complicated season and I hope to go further and be able to help more in what remains”.

Regarding the next game next Monday against Leganés: “It will be a tough game against a squad, Leganés due to circumstances is in bad shape but they have the team to be up there. I’m sure we’ll prepare with everything. At home we have to be strong, and we’ll go to win the match”.
