Jorge Molina: “The holidays are going to have to wait”

Jorge Molina, 38, knows the importance of this duel. A date where the azulones will try to counter with enthusiasm and ambition one of the coconuts, Inter. Italians are favorites, but getafenses do not wrinkle. Anything is possible in a match …

Inter-Getafe. The day is coming.

Yes. It was all so strange. A global pandemic in between. When it was the draw we had just eliminated Ajax. Now that is far away. It has been very rare, but we have a great illusion.

Does Jorge Molina have any challenges in football?

Sure, this one. With Betis I played a few eighths of UEFA and with Getafe I want to play the quarters. For that you have to win on Wednesday. A challenge for me and for the whole team. One of the most important games in the history of the club and in our lives.

On Wednesday at midnight they can be on vacation or euphoric for having made history.

What a change. Holidays are going to have to wait, that's our mentality. It is worth the effort and continue working with the idea of ​​doing something great.

Would you have imagined it at the beginning of the season?

The coach always transmits that ambition. You have to believe, thinking that you can always is the only way to achieve success and excel. We had unfavorable crossings and he played against two greats from Europe coming from the Champions League like Ajax and Inter.

What about Inter?

It is a great team, for me it has one of the most powerful squads in Europe. Above in addition to Lautaro they have a brutal quality. Note that Alexis is often a substitute. Eriksen, behind came Godin, Skriniar … Impressive.

Respect without complexes?

I always respect. They are favorites, but that doesn't get you started by winning one to zero or give you any advantage.

Have they overcome the bad end of the season in LaLiga?

It was hard. Not winning matches burns and we gain very little after the break. Although we thought that Inter would start with an advantage for having continued competing until this week, the truth is that these days have been very good for us to disconnect and clear ourselves. And to rest, of course. People have recovered.

Is it better to be a single match?

Some people think so. They have a great squad and we can have more options to a match. I only know that playing without an audience is very ugly and you never adapt. The hobby is the sauce of soccer.

What would you say to the blue tide?

Let them experience it with the same intensity as if they were in the field. It is a pity that they cannot accompany us and we will do our best to make them enjoy.

And how does Jorge Molina live it at 38?

With age, these games are better valued and enjoyed more. Among all the strange things about this situation, what we should be left with is that we have an opportunity to make history for Getafe and for our careers.

There are many rumors. What will you do with your future?

Play at Getafe. I am very comfortable here and I feel that people value me and love me. I try to reciprocate with effort and I can't think of a better place to play soccer.

Not even China?

The option was there and we valued it, but in the end it did not come out.

We assure then that Wednesday will not be Jorge Molina's last game as a azulón …

My intention is to return to Germany with Getafe in a few days. That would be the best sign and for that we are all working with great enthusiasm.
