Juanma Lillo appeared satisfied with the point earned against Atlético de Madrid and stated that “when one comes to play at the Vicente Calderón and earns a point, they have to be happy. It’s a good result. There were times in which we thought about something more, but we’re not going to fool ourselves and speak about the three points. The supporters put a lot of pressure on you in this stadium and our opponents felt that.”

The manager of the team from Andalusia continued to speak about the match and said that “it would be unfair to say that it was our best game. We had a stage in which we were overwhelmed, but as the minutes passed we settled in on the pitch. Atlético were able to play well with Simão and Reyes and could have scored, but then we had chances to score at times. I’m leaving pleased, as we were in the match until the end.

“My team played together; they all made a big effort. The commitment was there from everyone. I’m very proud of my players,” Lillo wrapped up.
