[Sport] Gracia: "The important thing is that the penalty did not detract us"

[G h o s t l y.]

Gracia acts with caution in the press room and preferred not to enter to assess the action of the penalty that Hernández Hernández de Gayà pointed out on Griezmann.

Javi Gracia was prudent, perhaps seeing how the RFEF punishes the statements, and just wanted to enter to assess the action of Gayà's penalty on Griezmann. The coach preferred to stay with the "solidarity" game of his players and with the fact that the action of the penalty, and the subsequent goal of Messi after the rejection, did not "detract" them despite arriving in the last breath of the first half .
 

Does the result seem unfair?

We have already spoken of justice other times and it does not exist in football. But after this game I am proud of the work of my players. In the first half we were able to score a few more goals and the penalty action came right there. In the second half we were also able to get ahead, but we didn't and they went ahead. Still, we went for the win and we got a draw. But we came to win and it has been reflected on the field.

Why does game after game take so long to make the changes?

Forgive me, but after this game my assessment has to be very good from all the players. I make the changes at the time I think is appropriate.

In every season there is a turning point, perhaps it was the blush of the Cup seen the game they played against Barcelona?

I am quite positive and we are always seeing the bottle half full. We work in that spirit. I don't know if it's going to be a turning point, but we are working to be closer to victory than defeat. We try to choose what is the best and in this situation I think we are convinced about which way is. We want to win every game from minute 1, but we haven't been so constant in every game. But we also have a young team that must continue to learn and improve every day.

It was a solidarity Valencia ...

Is that if not here you have no choice.

How have you seen the action of the penalty?

From the penalty, I am not going to assess the referee's decision, I do stay with the moment, because it hurt us because it was in the last minute. It seemed like a push, then a contact ... I really haven't seen it well. But the important thing and what I keep is that it has not decentered us.
