The Real Madrid coach, Pablo Laso, was critical of his player Walter Tavares, expelled from the game that they won 85-88 at Urbas Fuenlabrada for a second technique for protesting 7 minutes from the end, of which he said that “you can not leave the game due to techniques“.
“I understand that you complain that you do not whistle, but I do not understand that he leaves the game. The easy thing for me would be to complain about the refereeing and protect my player, but for me this is not the easy thing, the improvement of the player is that they understand that this can happen, that they continue playing and accept those situations. He cannot leave a game, being a very important player for us, due to techniques. It seems absurd to leave a game because you have not been called a foulLaso said.
The Madrid coach acknowledged that they expected a difficult game, both because of the proximity of the previous duel against Zalgiris and because Fuenlabrada was going to “demand a lot“.”We play against a team that is first in points in the League, today both (Dusan) Ristic and (Obi) Emegano have grown, they have made difficult shots, and the energy they always show at home has been complicating the game for us, we had the feeling that we were not going back in“, he acknowledged.
The duel ended up being resolved in the last possession, with a triple by French point guard Thomas Heurtel, although the idea of the play, Laso revealed, was for Sergio Llull to play it. “We were clear that we wanted to give Llull the last ballThe previous play, due to his good defense, we could not execute it well, we wanted to give the ball to Llull, who attacked one on one, he only saw Thomas, a great merit of Llull and Thomas to put that shot at the end as well. The idea has come out very well, especially when you put them in“, joked the Madrid coach.
For Laso, this very close ending is a sign that the Endesa League is “super competitive“.”If anyone thinks that any game is going to be easy, it is proven that it is not. You see Madrid with 8 victories, Fuenlabrada with 2 and you think that Madrid will win easily and it is not like that“, he highlighted.
