Malaga manager Funes has addressed the team's recent 3-1 defeat against Villarreal at La Rosaleda, highlighting the steep learning curve of competing in the top division. Funes acknowledged the superiority of the opposition while defending the potential of his squad, which is still in the process of adapting to the elite level.
The manager noted that while his team attempted to maintain control in midfield, the high pressure applied by Villarreal made it difficult to break lines effectively.
