Atlético de Madrid are gaining points and are continuing to advance in Liga F, where they have already won two games after their first two matches. The team managed by Víctor Martín, who have won easily against Deportivo de la Coruña, want more. They know that they must continue to improve to find their best level and be an alternative to the best.
The match against Irene Ferreras ' team, who were unable to decipher their wall and avoid their attacks, was key. Atlético de Madrid has made the most of their defensive errors and that allows them to continue to evolve in the Liga F. In this way, Víctor Martín 's team, always attentive, continues to gain confidence in the domestic tournament.
Víctor Martín: “We have a very good week to rest and work”
Analysis and Lauren : “Very happy, we came with a load of difficult weeks. We had a schedule that couldn’t be spaced out. We noticed that a little, but the team, the important thing, which was to get the three points, we did it.”
“When a team closes in on you so much, they are harder to open up. We were able to open up thanks to Lauren , who brings us a lot. Defensively, you could see that. I think we need to improve, to get a higher rhythm.”
“We have to do the things we do well more often, we had a very high rate of inaccuracy. We have a very good week to work, rest and face a week of competition with consistency.”
Typical eleven : “I think that in the end it was clear, almost everyone started, which speaks volumes about the squad. I am being very unfair because they all deserve to play.”
The change of system : “It is possible, I think it is part of the process, not only in terms of the system, but also getting to know each other. When you change so much, the inaccuracies have come from this type of play. We will continue to fine-tune it, we see a lot of that growth during the day.”
“There are no nerves, but there is a responsibility to do things well, to be at the level of our fans. It is part of the time and the process, as far as the system is concerned, we have the possibility to vary. You have to keep modifying and I think the team responds well.”
“Every game will have its own nuances, because it is never the same, even if you play with the same system. You have to occupy the inside, it will depend on the game plan and how the opponent responds. Many times, teams will change to fight us and we will make the necessary changes.”
The change before Depor 's chances: “Many times, we had chances to increase the difference. In the end, we conceded from a corner that could have been avoided. You concede and, from then on, the opponent has their moment.”
“The drop, perhaps physically, at the moment of the season in which we are. It is clear that there are teams that are still not in good shape. These are the altitudes that they are in and we have to get into rhythm, it is clear that, if you do not close the game, when you concede, it can generate some doubt.”
Market closing : “I hope there are no departures, we have a fantastic squad. We could have changed more and the performance would not have dropped, there is a large squad, with injured players who will be joining soon. We have to keep improving and we have to go up.”
Gio and Sheila : “They were two forwards who sought to anchor the Depor line of five, to be able to keep the centre-backs in check with that threat. Gio , with his speed, and Sheila with her ability to move well and receive the ball. They wanted to establish that space to gain more time on the outside and for the inside players, like Vilde or Tatiana .”
Rosa Otermín: “I am happy to help the team and give the fans the three points”
Good start : “We are happy to get the first six points, but we could have generated a better feeling. We have a week to correct the mistakes we made.”
His return and his first start : “I am very happy, I think that wearing this shirt is what makes me proud. I am happy to help the team and give the fans three points.”
Corner kicks : “I'm happy to help the team. The coach says who takes the balls. If he says that I or Vilde should take them, go ahead.”
Improvement in defense : “There are many things to improve, we are getting to know each other. If we improve two or three things, we will be on track.”
Irene Ferreras: “We tried to keep the game open until the end”
Before the Atlético de Madrid women's coach went through the press room, it was the turn of the Deportivo de la Coruña coach. Irene Ferreras , a classic of our football, analysed what the clash in Alcalá de Henares brought about.
Goals from set pieces: “In the first half, we lacked forcefulness in many actions. The goals came from second and third plays and we lacked the forcefulness and liveliness of matchday 1. We had a demanding week and we were in an unfavourable situation, but we were not good.”
“In the second half, we tried to change things up, but it's a shame we didn't get a good result. We took our first steps and we showed our face, which is something that should be appreciated.”
The final minutes : “That was the idea we had in mind, you often approach matches from where you come from. We came in with accumulated fatigue, we wanted to be in the match until the final minutes. We needed to materialise the situation, we tried to keep it open and we had the match until the final minutes.”
Analysis of Atlético : “We came in with all the humility in the world, I think the first half is more our fault, specific things. In the second, they could have done us a lot of damage, but football is capricious like that. I take away a positive from Inés , I think she sustained us with the 2-0 and it is a result that allows you to feel that you are going up.”
“It was a question of emotional state, and with the score at 2-1 we felt like we had little to lose. That is always noticeable in the game.”
Market closure : “I understand that there will be nothing else, we have not considered any options. The ones that are there are the ones we work with.”
