MADRID, 30 Ene. (EUROPA PRESS) –
The sporting director of CA Osasuna, Braulio Vázquez, assured that the good season they are having in LaLiga Santander will allow them to focus on the Copa del Rey, where they will face Athletic Club in the semifinals, already going back and forth with the first clash in The Sadar, and without putting “limits”.
“I don’t know how the double game comes about. I really like the single game. For them the field factor of San Mamés is very important, because they push a lot at home. Let’s see, there are qualifiers that are decided in the first leg, although I think No, and we’re going to enjoy ourselves with our people. We don’t put limits on our cupbearer dreams,” he told the media after the draw.
Vázquez assured that he was “very happy” to have been in the hype, among the top four in the competition. “I think they all loved us, but they were very happy to return to El Sadar to play in the semifinals. They all loved us and not out of contempt, but out of history. But we are more excited than the other three together,” he said.
“The rivals all have a lot of Cups and we have none, but hopefully no one beats us. With our people, as we saw the other day against Sevilla in a fantastic game, and with hope and dreaming you can’t put a limit. Let’s go to enjoy the road as far as it takes us”, he assured, in this sense.
In addition, they face these ‘semis’ with the peace of mind that comes from being in seventh position in the table in LaLiga Santander, with an encouraging 28 points at the end of the first round.
“In other seasons when we were closer to the relegation places, you have a lot of mind in the League. Now, with 28 points, our main objective continues to be to maintain ourselves but I think we can focus our attention on the Cup. Although it can penalize you” , warning.
