Imanol Alguacil considered the victory of his Royal Society in Granada totally fair, where he regretted that Alex Sorloth became the 10th injured player. Fortunately, the same did not happen to Mikel Merino, who for the realistic coach is the best in LaLiga.

Imanol considered the final triumph of his team fair. “I think that, if any team deserved the victory, for the chances, it was us. I am very happy, it was not easy, but in general we played a very good game. We were able to make it 1-3, we were not right They got into the game with a penalty and, despite the fatigue, the team’s behavior has been exemplary, we have gone for victory and we have achieved it on our own merits, “he said.

He was asked about the second part of his team, with the comeback. “I think that, in the first half, there have been alternatives, it has cost us to adjust the pressure, but we have made enough chances and the best of Granada has been their goalkeeper. We knew that inside they could hurt us, I think we have corrected it in the second part, and that in the end we had a great game and we must give a lot of value to this triumph, coming from where we come, “he said.

Imanol praised Mikel Merino, one of the best of the game. “For me he is the best player in LaLiga, he has been showing it for years. It is a luxury for me as a coach to have him, also for the club that he wants to be in Real, that speaks very well of Real. But, to part of highlighting him, we must highlight the whole team, which does it very well, “he said.

The downside was Sorloth’s injury. “It has all the earmarks of being a fiber break and that he is going to be one more injured. We have to face all the games at the highest level, because otherwise we would not achieve what we are achieving. Playing every three days and at this level requires, to see if he is the last to fall, “he wished.
