"It is a negative assessment because we have lost. We have not deserved to lose, we have had many very clear chances," Sevilla manager Julen Lopetegui said following their defeat to Granada.
"But we need to continue improving, learning and achieving results to continue growing as a team after the return from the international break. Now comes the international break and we have to manage this and try to improve the team.
"We are unhappy, the same as them, to not have been able to give them that happiness that they were wanting. We will try to improve and develop with a fresh mind."
