The storm conditions the training of the 'Ponfe'

After the rest day on Thursday, Ponferradina's squad resumed training this Friday, delaying the start time, since the strong frosts that are being registered these days in the Bierzo make it impossible to use the lawn of the Annex, completely frozen in the early hours of the day.

The second blue and white coach, Pablo Lago, who continues to lead the team while Bolo is in quarantine after testing positive for COVID-19 last day 1, he assured at the end of the training that “with the passing of the hours the field is improving and there is no major problem”. In the same way, in El Toralín, where the most delicate areas of the lawn have been covered with thermal blankets, “It is frozen early in the morning, but with the sun it clears and is in perfect condition. Despite the anticipated cold, I think he will be in perfect condition for Monday's game. “

Still with two days of work ahead, Lago only ruled out the injured Manu Hernando and Yac, as well as Ríos Reina, which is also in quarantine, to receive Girona this Monday, a match in which Deportiva will try to put the icing on the first round with a victory: “The 30 points in 19 games speak of the consistency that the team has had in the first round. Winning on the last day would be an important reinforcement ”.

The Asturian coach assured that being at the head of the team “is a new situation for everyone, but those of us who are around the coach are here to help and give continuity to the work if these things happen. We try to give the greatest normality to the day to day. Things with Bolo are very clear and the work dynamic doesn't change much ”.

In any case, It could happen that Bolo could sit on Monday on the bench of El Toralín, as long as the test that must be done this weekend is negative, since it is that day when your quarantine period ends.
