ATLÉTICO DE MADRID 3 - EIBAR 0

Giménez: "It's not over; anyone is capable of scoring three"

The Uruguayan defender was also pleased to get minutes on the pitch: "I know that getting a chance in this team is difficult, but whether it's in defence or midfield I want to make the most of it".

Eibar-Atlético Live

Job done: 3-0 puts you in a commanding position, right?

"Yes, in the first half they defended well but we were always looking for the ball. After the break we knew they would go in search of a goal that would give them a chance in the second leg. The game opened up and we got two goals to calm things down. But it's not over; we have to go there and win".

Do you see Eibar turning a 3-0 scoreline around? 

"Obviously it's a clear advantage. But I'll say it again, we won't ease up at all. Any side in LaLiga can score three. Now we have to rest and then turn our minds to the next game in LaLiga, which is really important and against difficult opponents". 

You played in central defence and then later in midfield. What did you make of it? 

"Good, really good. I'm happy because I try to grow every day. I know getting a chance in this team is difficult but I want to make the most of the opportunity, whether it's as a central defender or on the wing. I'll always try to do my best".

Capa: "Bajamos la intensidad un poco en la segunda parte"

Ander Capa comentó el encuentro y reconoció que en la segunda parte el Eibar perdió fuelle: "Las sensaciones han sido buenas, hicimos una buena primera parte, pero en la segunda hemos bajado la intensidad un poco. El resultado es duro, un 3-0 es complicado para la vuelta. Ahora, a pensar en LaLiga".
