Real Sociedad coach Imanol happy Sadiq, Andre Silva scored in win at Granada

Real Sociedad coach Imanol Alguacil was delighted with their 3-2 win at Granada.

Imanol was particularly pleased with Sadiq Umar and Andre Silva scoring on the day.

He later said: "It is clear that it has not been a good first half, that we have been bad in almost everything, especially in the duels and the falls. And, furthermore, we have lacked finesse when attacking them, even though we had it quite clear.

"Later, in the second half, when any other team would have gotten nervous, we used patience, play and that is how the comeback came. And I think that because of the chances and the game, we deserved to win, even though we recognized that the first half was very bad."

Imanol also celebrated the goals of Sadiq and André Silva.

"There is no doubt that it is very important. I am transmitting peace of mind to them but in many games, as a result of that anxiety, they have done things that they did not have to do.

"Today they have been calmer and that is why they have surely scored the goals. They come to them phenomenal, to feel important, because they have also served to add three points away from home."
