Luis García Plaza, Mallorca coach, said this Friday that Levante UD, bottom of LaLiga, “is a team that deserves to be in the First Division” and their situation in the standings table is not explained. But also sent a message to Xavi Hernández, Barcelona coach to whom the vermilions were measured on the previous day.
The coach of the vermilion added that the coach of Barça, Xavi Hernández “knew how to sell very well” the absences he had against Mallorca (last day), and acknowledged that he was “innocent” in that regard. To the thread he added that “Xavi did very well including in the list of unsubscribed players who were not registered; there he began to win the game because it seemed that a substitute Barça was coming, “he said.
Luis García acknowledged that it is difficult for him to understand the bad qualifying situation of Levante, the bottom and his next rival in the League.
“The Levante is a very strange case. All his coaches have said that he has the best squad in history, but sometimes football has these things. For me, they have enormous potential, with top players with a lot of talent, and it is very difficult to explain what is happening to him. I wish him the best from Sunday because it is a club that deserves to be in the First Division for everything it has done in recent years, “Garcia Plaza said in a telematic press conference.
The Mallorca will face the game this Saturday after two defeats followed in LaLiga (against Granada and FC Barcelona), therefore, the Mallorcan coach has remarked that his team “will seek victory” at the Ciudad de Valencia Stadium: “We have to play a serious game, be firm, forceful” , he specified.

“We have been in a very precarious situation all year and we are the team with the lowest losses in the entire league. A similar situation had never happened to me, with seven, eight casualties in each game and making patches in the line-ups. We will also go to Valencia just, “he explained.
“If we have been able to reach the first lap with 20 points, 4 from the descent with all the losses we have had, and after having overcome everything we have overcome, Surely we will continue in First, suffering but we will continue there. I really mean it, I am very proud of the effort my players are making, “concluded García Plaza.
