Mehdi Nafti: "We played against a good side that outdid us in a number of areas"

C.D. Leganés manager, Mehdi Nafti, appeared in a press conference after the pepineros played their 22nd league game against pucelanos at the Estadio José Zorrilla, which ended in a 1-0 victory for the hosts.

The coach admitted the opponents were superior: "Generally, there's no denying their superiority today; we played against a good side that outdid us in a number of areas. We had several chances, Jon with the clearest, but it was worth just taking our temperature today to see where we are and there's still work ahead of us".

"En situaciones de transiciones les hemos dado algún susto, pero el contenido del partido no es suficiente para mí"

Nafti emphasised that they "stayed fighting against the opponent to deny them a second, and we were able to catch them on the break as they transitioned. But, if we are going to be ambitious at all, what I saw that match was not enough".

The Franco-Tunisian coach concluded commenting: "there were things I didn't like in the second half, but what I don't like, I discuss inside. I prefer to stress the level of our opponents".
