Ezequiel Medrán after the draw: "I want to find the best team to compete" | OneFootball

The red and black coach stated that «the squad needed a hug and to take the win», something that couldn't be, since, despite playing better, the opponent managed to take a draw from Brigadier López with a great goal from Víctor Figueroa on a free kick.

«The team made a great effort in the first 45 minutes and sustained it for the first 15 of the second half, the improvement has to be progressive», highlighted the coach from Rafaela.

Medrán did not hide the reality of his team, which when he arrived was 10 points ahead of Talleres de Remedios de Escalada, the last team that would be relegated. With this draw, they are partially 11 points away from the relegation zone, and for this reason, he said: «Today our reality shows that the first objective is to ensure the category and finish the tournament in the best way possible».

«This is the basis of how we have to compete from now on. Maintaining the behaviors when playing is key, and the results will come», said the coach.

Regarding the presence of key players, such as Pulga Rodríguez, Medrán detailed that, despite his desire to have him from the start, «he couldn't train normally during the week, so we preferred to introduce him progressively to avoid a possible injury».

As for the changes during the game, Medrán commented that «the team made a significant effort in the first 45 minutes», and assured that the substitutions will be key in the next games, to give the team more freshness and gameplay options.

«We are very happy with the challenge, but we know there is a margin for improvement. Points are achieved with work, and that is the basis of what we want», concluded the coach.
