“We must not get carried away by pessimism”

The Catalan central Edgar González played his first derby as a starter last Sunday, with a painful 0-2 defeat against the eternal rival and a very bad image of the team, which until a week before had all its fans very excited, but in just seven days the Betis have lost to Atlético, Leverkusen and Sevilla FC and have gone to the break with a very bad taste in their mouths. “Right now we are even angry, wanting to turn this week around. It was a result that hurt us, also because of how we came from the two previous games. You could draw or lose a game but we were always competing against Atlético. and Leverkusen we were far from that. But we have to look forward, we are in a good position in LaLiga and we only think about finishing this year well and getting the three points in the field of Elche, “said Edgar in RTV Betis.

Edgar analyzed the downturn in the team’s game: “We know that there are always moments in the season and games in which you can be more or less successful. It is not a problem, much less one of commitment or that the team has not gone out to for the three points in these three games. We always do that and in training the intensity is very high for it. Knowing that there were three difficult games, we were beaten in the first two, in the Atlético de Madrid field they were superior, In Leverkusen it is true that we came out well but the result was bulky as shown at the beginning of the match, and in the derby we came out knowing that it was a match in which there was a lot of responsibility. In the first half hour they had more the ball but we did not They generated chances, it was tense, with inaccuracies of the two teams. The expulsion of course weighs, in the second half we went out trying not to generate chances, but already with the 0-1 the game got very uphill or. Learn from what happened this week, that we have to always be close on the scoreboard. Knowing that this cannot happen and looking forward, there is much left, we are in a position close to everything and well placed in Europe. And all united as we are, we are sure to get it out. “

Edgar made a balance of the first third of LaLiga, which is good, because the team is fifth and has even the Champions places within reach despite the last three defeats. “We have to work to repeat games like Valencia’s or many of the previous ones that we have also been doing this year. When the Valencia game ended, we did not get carried away internally by the euphoria of the game, but it was coming next week. We knew that It will be very difficult to go to the Elche field, like all the fields, next week after the break, it will not be easy at all, you have to face it with the utmost seriousness to get the three points. pessimism. We must be aware that it has been a bad week, but we must continue working in the same line and in the same direction, as we have been doing so far, not only this season but in much of this calendar year. more anger to turn this situation around. “
