F2 Logistics Cargo Movers head coach Regine Diego has taken responsibility for their 25-20, 22-25, 12-25, 35-33, and 9-15 meltdown against the Petro Gazz Angels in the Premier Volleyball League Invitational on Thursday afternoon.
According to Diego, the Cargo Movers supporters should blame and bash her instead of the players, who were still exhausted from their five-set victory over the Choco Mucho Flying Titans on Tuesday night.
“I’m going to blame that game on me. There are so many things na dapat inadjust ko pero hindi ko nagawa,” said Diego. “I mean, the players are doing the best they can; siguro mentally, hindi pa sila ganon karecovered, but mostly, it’s me. Don’t bash the players; it’s me guys.
“May learning curve pa ako, I’m new to this. Bigyan din natin ng chance ‘yung mga bata makapag-recover kasi that game before was super duper exhausting for all of us, even for Choco Mucho di ba?” she added.
Diego further said that the loss to the Angels is a learning experience not just for her as a coach but also for the Cargo Movers players and can be useful with the playoffs just around the corner.
“We can’t be too emotional and I have to make them put in mindset agad agad, kailangan ko agad sila i-proseso after nung game last time, siguro hindi sila nakapag-reset, they were stuck on that pagod and that exhaustion,” said Diego.
“I told them naman na it’s not every day na panalo, may mga bagay talagang magpapa-humble sa atin, may mga bagay talagang kailangan pa natin pag-aralan and meron pa talaga tayong lapses na kailangan natin baguhin, meron taying mental problem pagdating sa mga games usually nanggigigil sila,” she added.
