Sevilla coach Jose Luis Mendilibar believes they were the better team after defeat in the UEFA Super Cup to Manchester City.
Cole Palmer canceled out Sevilla's established by Youssef En-Nesyri before the game was taken to spotkicks. After the first nine penalties were converted Sevilla defender Nemanja Gudelj drilled his kick against the crossbar to give City victory.
Mendilibar said, "To make a good plan against a team as good as City is very complicated. I really wish we'd played higher up the pitch and put them under more pressure. When we had the chances to score the second goal, we didn't take them. But I really believe we played a good game, and we probably created more chances then them.
"City will, generally, score at least once every game and we believed that we had to get two goals tonight in order to win, and we didn't quite manage it.
"Our players changed mentality from the weekend. They believed in themselves, worked harder, ran more and, when you've got a good opponent like this, it's vital to go up at least a gear if not two. We created danger tonight the important thing is that we competed really, really well.
