Hercules visits the leader (5:00 pm) forced to join to save his coach and cut his free fall towards Third. Íñiguez by penalty and De Lerma and Jona by injury miss a match in which Benja will be.
Defeat against Atlético Levante.
The Nova Creu Alta of Sabadell, one of the few scenarios with some glamor of the group, will mark the fate of Hercules this season. If the Alicante team is able to resurface before the leader there can be hope and future. But if the blue and white group loses again, it will be the end to the stage of Vicente Mir on the bench, something that the coach himself has assumed.
A single victory in six league games, plus a elimination through the Copa del Rey, are numbers that can hardly protect a technician who has not even taken advantage of the revolution undertaken in the template in the winter market, in which six players have been signed and seven casualties have been granted.
“I know how things are. I have the club people in my favor, but the results are not accompanying and if they dismiss me their reason they have,” said Mir, who allowed himself to even launch a Almost posthumous message to the Herculaneum fans “in case I no longer have a chance to do so”. “The fans of Hercules are impressive and have great merit after so many years in Second B”, were the words of Mir, who admitted that it is possible that with a new coach “things change”.
In spite of these words, Mir did not want to give the image of a delivered technician and affirmed that he is still looking forward to training the Hercules, whom he now sees with a better workforce than when he arrived. “This team is going to improve with me or without me,” said the Valencian coach, who has run out this week without Juan Carlos Ramírez, his main supporter, who stepped to the side of the club's management before the popular outcry against him .
For the visit to the leader, Vicente Mir recovers striker Benja, absent due to injury in the last few days, although the player, according to the coach, is not in a position to play the 90 minutes, and Nani side, sanctioned last day . The Hercules will not be able to count on the central Pablo Íñiguez, sanctioned after his expulsion last day against Atlético Levante, nor with Carlos De Lerma or Jona Mejía, injured.
The Valencian has summoned 18 players for this match, among which are one more week the Pedro Torres and Nico Espinosa youth players, who already had the opportunity to debut with the first team last day. The possible alignment of the Hercules will be formed by Falcon; Raúl Ruiz, Perone, Quintero, Nani; Yeray, Jiménez; Moha, Vergos, Alfaro and Benja.
