Levante coach: We must work harder to get points and don’t want to focus on the referees

In the 12th round of La Liga, Levante played 1-3 Atletico Madrid away. After the game, Levante coach Calero was interviewed.

Feelings after the game

"When you come to such a stadium and face such a strong team, what you imagine and what you can actually do are often two different things. Obviously, we had a difficult start. We originally thought we could cause some trouble for our opponents in the first few minutes of the game, but it was difficult for us to get into the state. "

"We had a good few minutes after the equalizer and the team played well in the second half until the score became 1-2. Then we got into trouble and made a mistake that made the score 1-3. The boys worked hard, but we felt that this game was for us. We have to work harder to get points."

About the canceled goal

"I watched the replay. It was not a simple action. When the player stretched his foot, he had already passed Oblak. Anyway, the score should have been 2-3. In the last few minutes of the game, you can never predict what will happen. But this opportunity that may have allowed us to equalize was taken away. To be honest, when I watched the replay, I was just as excited as watching the game."

Attitude towards the new season

"We. We're ready. We know it's going to be a difficult year, we know it's not going to be easy. The key is not to be nervous, but looking at the current state of the team, when the team reaches a certain level of maturity, we will start to score points."

Go in

"We are working hard to improve, but we also know that we do not have the best taker and finisher. In terms of set-pieces, sometimes it is necessary to have an excellent taker and players who can grab points. Indeed, we still have a lot of work to do. We scored through corner kicks last week, and it is the same today, including today. The free kick is just part of the game and we have to make the most of it."

For referee Gil Manzano

"It's all very subtle, but sometimes...I still choose not to comment, but they know themselves. Where you're officiating and you know what to do. Sometimes you get called for no fouls and you get called for minor fouls. I always try to evaluate things from a football perspective and not focus on the referee, but it helps the team."Mini-game recommendations:Roll the Ball: Sliding Block Rolling Puzzle
