former Espanyol manager Sarabia felt his side deserved victory in the 0-0 draw with Deportivo, praising the team's intensity and work rate despite the stalemate.

Espanyol drew 0-0 with Deportivo in a match manager Eder Sarabia felt his team should have won. Speaking after the game, Sarabia expressed satisfaction with his side's performance, highlighting their dominance and superior play throughout. "We clearly imposed ourselves on the rival. Their goalkeeper was Deportivo's best player," he said. "We played a lot in their half, dominated quite a bit. We could have deserved a victory we didn't achieve. I'm very happy because we were quite superior."

Sarabia praised the team's tactical discipline and defensive work, noting that Deportivo's attacking changes at half-time—bringing on Adama and Aubameyang—yielded little. He also discussed his team selection, explaining choices based on weekly training performances and specific tactical needs, while promising opportunities for players who didn't start, including Bauza who impressed in the previous match against Villarreal.
