Real Sociedad coach David Moyes had no complaints over their Copa del Rey defeat to Villarreal.
Moyes, spoke to the media after his team's Copa del Rey tie in Villarreal which ended 1-0 to the home team.
"The result wasn't fair as our opposition deserved to win by more goals," he said.
"The result wasn't reflective of the game as Villarreal deserved and should have won by a greater margin so we leave happy enough with the score line. We could easily have lost by more so we can't complain.
"Once again, we faced a great footballing side who are strong and play really well. Our game plan was similar to the league match. On that occasion we lost 4-0 but I felt we actually played better on that night.
"We have a great deal to improve if we want to keep our hopes alive in this tournament. We need to defend better and use the ball more effectively. If we want to overcome this round of the cup we need to take our chances in front of goal."
