Villarreal coach Setien on Real Betis: We should have three points

Villarreal coach Quique Setien was left frustrated after their 1-1 draw with Real Betis.

The away side took the lead with a goal from Borja Iglesias,but in the second half the Submarine equalised thanks to a brilliant cross from Ramón Terrats which Yeremy converted.

Just two days ago, Villarreal CF had celebrated its 100th birthday with a spectacular party at the Estadio de la Cerámica.

Afterwards, Setien stressed that Villarreal deserved more than a draw against the Andalusian side: “We got a point, which should have been three. The first half was even, but in the second half we were superior. We had more chances and we threatened a lot, but we didn't find the second goal.

“The reality is that it all comes down to scoring, but we played a great game. We conceded very little and generated a lot. We came forward a lot and stopped their transitions. We are satisfied because these are the things we can control."

He added, "Now we want to get people back. We know we have two tough games before the break. We face them with optimism. We take encouragement with us. We deserved more than a draw against a great team. We are getting more and more confident. We had good moments against Madrid and Valencia, but now we're in a good moment."
