Los Che raced to a four-goal advantage, thanks to http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/PSV-c40281 Eindhoven halved the deficit in the final 10 minutes.
Spanish international, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Valencia-c40863, as Unai Emery’s men welcomed an in form PSV Eindhoven, at the Mestalla.
Los Che dominated the proceedings for the majority of the match, but suffered from concentration lapses in the final minutes and allowed the Dutch giants a route in the tie.
Analyzing the fixture, the 40-year-old tactician believes that there were many positives to take from the European tie; however, he was disappointed with the two late goals conceded.
Reflecting on http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ola-Toivonen-c28363 and Georginio Wijnaldum's shots, Emery opined that the goals have done much damage to their aspirations in the competition as Valencia had the chance to finish the tie at the Mestalla.
The coach stated that Valencia lacked consistency in their approach to the game, as they failed to control the proceeding in the final minutes. Emery attributed Valencia’s performance in the final stretch to ‘overconfidence’.
Continuing on the topic, the former Real Sociedad player insisted that the squad needs to learn how to play with consistent intensity throughout the match and should not let their guard down at any moment.
"We have done many positive things in the game but have had one little negative spell which has done so much damage."
"We lacked a little consistency, which has been penalised with two goals in the closing stages.
"They are two errors which can be put down to overconfidence. We must have the same concentration throughout the game.
"We didn't have it in a small part of the match at the end and that has affected our good work.
"It is something negative that we have to learn from. The game lasts 90 minutes."
With the first leg of the Europa League Round of 16 out of their way, Los Che return their attention to La Liga. The Mestalla-based outfit is third in Primera Division league rankings and take on the challenge of Joaquin Caparros’ http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/RCD-Mallorca-c40326 in
