Real Sociedad coach Imanol on Sturm Graz draw: Best performance of season | OneFootball

Real Sociedad coach Imanol Alguacil was satisfied with their 1-1 draw against Europa League opponents Sturm Graz.

While frustrated, Imanol says their qualifying hopes remain alive with the result.

The coach said, "The only thing that's annoying is the result, but that's football, and we just lacked a little something in front of goal. Sometimes it's bad luck and other times it's just bad finishing. But I'm very happy with the game and with the support our fans showed.

"We're still alive, and that's the important thing. We did so well, and it's a shame the ball just didn't want to go in for us. We had all sorts of chances, but if we can continue to play as we did today, I'm certain we'll finish top of the group."

He added: "It's the best game of the season we've played, with speed, taking advantage of all the space we could find in different areas."
