Rubi has appeared before the media today for the preview of Almería’s match next Saturday (6:15 p.m.) against Lugo at the Estadio de Juegos Mediterráneos. The rojiblanco coach is aware that he is looking for one of the most expensive promotions in recent years due to the numbers of both his team and those of Eibar and Valladolid. “This is going to be a terrible and precious battle. As we are lucky enough to take the cat to the water, the party is going to be big. We fought against two ocean liners, but we also have a very good team. We are going to enjoy ourselves, with the utmost confidence that we are going to achieve it”, she affirms.
The Vilasarense coach does not get wet about the signing of another central defender, arguing that Carriço and Chumi evolve in their recoveries. “We have had bad luck with injuries, three in three weeks. Every day a new player with a crutch arrives at training. The club is prepared in case any opportunity arises. Dani and Chumi are making an effort to arrive”comments on this a Rubi who gives no clues about the possible ownership of Ely. “The rival is going to study us very well these days and I don’t want to give clues. We arrived well in legs, few teams are going to see bottomless. We have player resources despite the limitations due to casualties. We work on the mental aspect every training session,” he asserts.
The UDA lost the streak in Zaragoza (2-0), a meeting already forgotten in the locker room. “These are games that happen. The team made merits and a rival that we had almost lined up, the public gives wings. Let’s look at the positive: if we win the Lugo game, we’re going to win five out of six games. The players are not emotionally affected”, affirms the coach of an Almería team who now only looks at Lugo. “As there are fewer left, the word importance gains importance. There are twelve games left, many things are going to happen like last day. We have to focus on beating Lugo and looking forward. It is a team that takes its game model to the letter, it does it phenomenally. He has one loss in fifteen games and no one has beaten him by more than one goal. I don’t expect variations of his style of play”, he expires.
