The coach of the Eibar, José Luis Mendilibar, praised this Friday the quality of Sevilla, of which he stressed that it is a team with “quite a diversity of play style“and that adapts” in many circumstances “, since you can dominate him and” he is comfortable “, or they dominate you and” he is also comfortable “.
The gunsmith coach believes that to have victory options against the Andalusian team Eibar has to compete tomorrow “to the death, from you to you “and not feel” inferior at all “.
He also thinks that they will have to try to push “in the opposite field”, controlling the various options for Sevilla's attack, since if they play that game “well” they will have “options to win”.
The Biscayan coach believes that Eibar has to compete with the same intensity with the one he did in the previous game against Atlético de Madrid in Ipurua, although Sevilla and the colchoneros “are different teams.”
He is also aware of the danger posed by a player on a roll like the forwardo It's Nesyri. “He will be super happy and super motivated- said Mendilibar– and you might be thinking that in any game you can score a goal because that's the way it is, it comes from scoring three goals in the last game, it's strong and I think the teammates too, they know that if the ball reaches the area he will be there and not It is only that goal, but it also gives goal options “.
He also opined that the fact that Eibar has won in the first round at Sánchez Pizjuán will not influence tomorrow, since “it's been a long time ago” and Eibar is having a “hard time winning at home”.
However, Mendilibar believes that Sevilla is aware of the “difficulty” that they are going to put on him and he hopes that the gunsmiths can take advantage of the options that are presented to him.
By last He complimented the Sevilla coach, Julen Lopetegui from Gipuzkoa, and said that the best proof that he is doing well is that “a demanding club” like Sevilla has “renewed three more years”.
“With the renovation- Mendilibar ended– the club has said it, that they are delighted with it. You see a lot of what he wants when you see Sevilla playing, who are trying to sneak into the top three, teams that are almost untouchable. ”
