Head coach Julen Lopetegui of Seville shared his views on the UEFA Super Cup match that his team lost to Bavaria (1:2).
“It hurts to lose. Especially if it’s the final if you have a chance to win. Yeah, it was really difficult, but we were able to find the power to attack the enemy. Just when it appeared to be the least likely, they scored. Just 12 days ago, we began training again, but in the end, we were able to go face to face with the best club in Europe.
We lost some moments, unfortunately. The competitor had an outstanding goalkeeper named Neuer. But our squad, our approach to the situation, our efforts, and our character are very proud of us. Faith hasn’t left us. Yeah, we’re going home without a trophy, but we’re proud of what we’ve done,’ says the official Lopetegi UEFA website.
