Valencia coach Gennaro Gattuso said he was happy with his side's performance and regretted not having had more attacking depth to take advantage of their superiority over Real Sociedad to take all three points.
The Italian coach wanted to make it clear that playing against ten players is not easy. "I've lost four or five games when I've played against ten-man teams," he recalled. "Against a 10-man Real Sociedad you could lose the game," he said because "they are a great team, they have a great mentality and they have been playing together for many years. It was a difficult game.
However, he acknowledged that there were things they could have done better. "We put few players in the box and we could have done better in the build-up play," he said. "We lacked more attacking depth, a dribble in the final metre, a shot, we are shooting very little," added Gattuso who, despite everything, said he was "happy with the team's response. I liked it.
Nico also spoke: "The way the game went, it didn't go our way. We started with a goal down, with one more and with a draw in the first half we hoped to get a better result.
"It's a difficult ground, one of the toughest in La Liga. It's a result we would have signed for before the game. We leave with a point away from home, which is always positive," he said on 'DAZN'.
