November 24 After Getafe lost 0-1 at home to Atletico, coach Bodalas expressed regret for the defeat in an interview with DAZN and praised the performance of the players.

About this game

"We know that this game will be determined by the details. Facing an opponent that far exceeds us in all aspects, whether in budget or lineup, our players performed very well. In the end, the numerical disadvantage determines the outcome of the game."

About Dakna Goals conceded when Mu was not on the court

"The team stayed energetic until the end of the game. We still had a chance. But with one less player, we seemed a bit naive. The rules stipulate that if there are multiple players on the field who need treatment, they do not have to all leave the field. For such an opponent, we should not give them this advantage."

What reinforcements the team needs

"The team has been working hard and I regret the result. Indeed, we need some more influential midfielders to improve the ball possession rate and the ability to create opportunities. We will see if new players can be introduced in the winter transfer window."

Feelings about the game

"We know that the details will determine the game, we did a good job tactically, facing a strong team, we successfully limited their attack. Our team is like this, there is nothing to blame. We must continue to work hard because the league will be very difficult, this defeat is mainly due to the situation of one less player Failed to handle the time well. "

Regarding Duarte's mistake

"We lost one person when we conceded the ball. This was a mistake. Facing such a strong opponent, such a mistake was fatal. "

On Duckham's departure

"I don't know the specific situation, but the rules state that when two players go down at the same time, they do not need to all leave the field. When Duarte got up, Djene had to leave the field. This reflects our lack of experience. We need to handle this situation better, this is not the first time it has happened. The team has done their best. We are strong, but we still need to improve in controlling the ball and creating opportunities."

Regarding the issue of luck,

"Some unfortunate things will always happen in football matches. When there is one less player, we should be closer to prevent the opponent from easily entering the penalty area. "

With the matchup. Real Madrid's game is similar

"Yes, when our numbers are equal, the team can cope well with these strong teams. Atletico Madrid is capable of competing for all championships, and their lineup is very strong. Even with substitutions, the level of substitute players is very high. Many times, we want to make more substitutions, but the gap is too big."
