What people are saying
In this sport, sometimes there are no dream debuts, and this was something that could happen.
The match, I think, was even, but when we were playing our best and had two chances to make it 2-0, Girona turned the match around.
We rushed things with the ball, we were not good in that aspect, and it is normal for people to show their dissatisfaction at the end of the match.
