Press conference
Gaizka Garitano: "We have not created chances"

The UD Almería head coach recognises in the post-Osasuna press conference his side's ineffective offensive strategy, although he highlights the Rojiblancos' much-improved defensive display

Gaizka Garitano spoke to the media after the match against CA Osasuna in which UD Almería did not manage to achieve victory. The Rojiblancos' gaffer shared his post-game reaction and assured: 'It was a game of fine margins. We were organised and covered CA Osasuna's wings well, but in attack, we didn't create any chances.' 

'We've weakened CA Osasuna's potential, but we haven't been able to create threatening situations, we haven't been able to overcome their defence and they've won the duels,' the Basque Country native explained.

The UD Almería coach assessed how the team's first half of the campaign has developed: 'We haven't won any game yet and the reality of the team is what we've already seen.' The Rojiblancos' head coach recognises that his players are in the right state of mind: 'There are other problems. It's not about their state of mind, it's more about the lack of other strengths.' 

This is how Gaizka Garitano concluded the press conference, the last of the first half of the campaign. The second half of the season starts on the weekend of 13-14 January with tough-looking games to be played and having league safety 11 points away.
