Virtually no one would dare to be as optimistic as Pep Lluís Martí after seeing the image left by Girona in Gran Canaria, but the Balearic coach insisted on the previous match against Racing that he maintains “intact confidence” with his players and that he is convinced that at the end of the season “we will achieve the objective”.
“I still have the utmost confidence in my players. They know what tactical moves to make and what we need to do is believe in ourselves. I am sure that they will improve as the games progress and that in a short time we will be one hundred percent, “said Martí, who is very clear about the conclusions he drew from the game against Las Palmas. “In defense we were very good, we did not make mistakes like other times that have cost us many points. In attack we lacked the audacity to finish the plays. We have talked about it and we already know how to harm Racing ”, he sentenced.
Full of confidence, the Girona coach repeated several times throughout the appearance that he is sure that “we will achieve the objective. “We do not know in what way, maybe sooner or later, but we will achieve the goal that we all have,” he said. For this, and more after having started off on the wrong foot on the first day after the break, Martí knows that it is “vital” to win Racing, in a duel that he hopes will be “demanding” due to the rival's need but that he believes that “We will win for sure.”
The mentality is “key”, and the Balearic is aware of it, so in his speech he is clear that “once a game ends we have to think about the other. In the new format of this competition we do not have time to think about whether we have won, tied or lost, we cannot have highs and lows of morale, just strengthen what we do well and correct what we do wrong, “he said.
The rival of this Tuesday night will be Racing de Santander and the coach, close to Oltra, warned of the danger they have. “They are a team in need of points and that makes them an even more dangerous opponent. I know their coach very well and I know that they will be a brave team and that they will seek victory from the first moment. This may be good for us to take advantage of the spaces, but they will also demand more of us in defense and for this reason we must be very focused, “said Martí, who is clear that where hers should improve is” in the audacity in the final meters. “
