'We will continue working'
Antonio Lopez and Gabi appeared in the media mixed zone in the Coliseum
Atletico players were crestfallen with defeat at Getafe and are looking forward to the next game. Antonio Lopez and Gabi were in charge of speaking to the media in the mixed zone of the Coliseum Alfonso Perez.
Antonio Lopez said, 'It was a disaster because Getafe played with one man lessfor part of the first half and the whole second half, a team like Atletico Madrid can not lose a game like this. We have tried, but it has not gone as we all wanted and we must continue working to get out of this. We have not been able to take the three points and this week we will have to analyse errors. If we want to be in the top four will have to change, especially to win away from home.'
One of the captains of Atletico said 'it has been a painful defeat because they had one less player. We have to win away from home and if we want to be among the top four we must start doing this.
Meanwhile, Gabi said that 'the player were responsible for this result. A team like Atletico Madrid, one up with a man advantage should not give Getafe a chance to get back in to the game. We have to change many things, especially when playing away from home and put a lot more intensity in our game.'
He acknowledged that 'Getafe has put more intensity to the game and had more chances to win.”
To reach the Champions League positions we must 'win on the road because it is impossible to keep up. We need to turn this situation around and start winning away from home. We're disappointed. All players who have come to this club have great quality and this club has to be up there.'
