Real Sociedad head coach Pellegrino Matarazzo commented on his team’s victory over Barcelona (2:1) in the 20th round of La Liga, noting that the result was a reward for his effective work and team character.

Matarazzo noted that the team has progressed significantly since his arrival.

" The results are good, but today we can learn a lot from this match - other details are obvious and punishable. It’s our responsibility to continue to thoroughly understand,” he said.

The coach also commented on the role of luck in the game:.

“Today was good for us, because in the previous matches we were not effective. A good goalkeeper is not just luck; “Speeches that are difficult to explain, but everything can be done in order to increase the chances of victory.”.

Matarazzo explained why in the other half the team changed the scheme to a five in defense:.

" If we needed stability, we changed the structure"

The coach was pleased to comment to the referee:.

“To be honest, I don’t know what happened so close, I can’t accurately assess it.”.

I would like to pay special attention to the reaction of the team after the missed goal:.

" However, after scoring a goal, the stench of running away to earn even more is not offensive."

Pellegrino also spoke about Take Kubo’s injury:.

“There is no confirmation yet, but someone has a muscle injury. Kubo is very important for us both in attack and in defense. We don’t know how long I’ll be in pose.”.

After this victory, Real Sociedad is deprived of the insurmountable situation under the Matarazzo administration. Guess what, the new mentor has taken over the club at the birth of 2025.
