Press conference

“We want to end the first round with a good point advantage”

Sergio Pellicer held a remote press conference this afternoon at La Rosaleda. “Every match presents a different scenario”, he said of the second match against Oviedo.

Focused on LaLiga SmartBank

“Today is not about the Cup. We are in a whirlwind of competition and now the focus is exclusively on this match. Anything else would be sending the wrong message and be distracting to the team. This is the last match of the first round, and we’ve also come from four games where the team has deserved much more. We want to end the first round with a good point advantage”.

Previous match

“The match the other day was decided by minor details, and I think the game will go down that same route tomorrow. There will be players who were in action from the start who will have to go out there again, as well as others who also participated during play. However, it’s normal, we view the Cup game as if we were competing in a training session”.

Winning helps to keep winning

“We’ve trained for this game thinking about the physical aspect. However, if we win tomorrow it won’t be because of the Cup match, and if we lose it also won’t be because of the Cup match. It’s about our daily training and the fact that every match presents a different scenario. Winning helps you to win mentally, but just because you've won doesn't mean you're going to keep winning”.
