Jose Mourinhotechnician of the Romecommented with disappointment on the giallorossa defeat against Betis, which greatly complicates his path in the Europe League. For the former Madrid player, however, his team did not deserve to fall into the Olympic: “They had more technical quality than us, especially in the first half, but we had more chances. I must admit that they are a strong team, that put us in trouble, but we were not aiming with the opportunities that we built. A tie would have been fairer.”
Betis goals: “We were passive, yes, in the second goal the team was tired. It leaves us with a bad taste, we didn’t deserve to lose.”
Red to Zaniolo: “I didn’t see anything, I know that Pezzella should have been expelled too. But Zaniolo must have done something”.
Lap: “Being first is not our objective, now we are interested in being second”.
