Palladino said the team was left with a deep sense of disappointment after falling short of their goal to reach the final. He acknowledged that they were facing a team with many talented players.

Betis opened the scoring with a well-taken free kick from Antony, but Florentia bounced back with two goals and controlled the game in the second half. They even had a chance to score a third goal, but in extra time, they conceded a goal that could have been avoided.

Palladino praised his players for giving their all and said he had no criticism for them. He attributed the loss to a combination of factors, including luck, and stated that the team played a great game, unfortunately falling short.

The coach expressed pride in his team, acknowledging that they lacked the spark needed to take them further in the competition.
