The waters go down cloudy when Pisuerga approaches José Zorrilla, since the results have made the situation extreme for him Real Valladolid and for its coach Sergio González. After the defeat in Villarreal and with eight games without knowing the victory, three points out of 24 possible, the clash against Athletic (Sunday 6:30 pm) in Zorrilla has become an ultimatum for the coach and his team.
After being defeated in Villarreal, the squad faces this decisive week before the stoppage through the FIFA window with the idea of achieving their first victory of the championship and for this the coaching staff has scheduled four work sessions, starting with Wednesday at 11:00 hours in the new Los Anexos field. This same morning schedule will be the one used by the team the rest of the week, Thursday, Friday and Saturday, before Sunday's clash.
In that important game, Sergio will be able to count on Nacho that he lost the match at La Cerámica due to suspension (he was sent off against Alavés), but he will still not be able to summon Kiko Olivas, Javi Sánchez (pending evolution reads the medical part of the club) and Jankor, whose injury also produced in that last game in Zorrilla, will keep him out for another two weeks, at least until after the break, when Pucela visits Granada.
