The center back of SD Ponferradina Jose Manuel Arias Copete journalists have been convinced that if the team from Berciano is capable of stringing together two victories against CD Leganés next Saturday at El Toralín and on the last day of the visit to SD Amorebieta, they will have many options to dispute the promotion phase to Santander League.
“We are going to try six out of six and then we will see in the end where we are, but I am convinced that if we achieve it we have a good chance of being inside – among the top six classified in LaLiga SmartBank-because I am confident that one of the rivals is going to fail,” he assured.
The player who arrived this season from the Villarreal CF subsidiary alluded to Real Oviedo’s setback against Real Zaragoza (3-3) which shows, from his point of view, that “it’s football and anything can happen and I’m sure that until the end We’re going to have our options.”

In fact, the Asturian tie in the Carlos Tartiere, clarified, “it must be a warning of the visit of Leganés, that although nothing is at stake, they have a squad of very good players who, without pressure, can play more loosely and calmly and that is why you have to be one hundred percent, count with the fans and let it be seen that we are the ones who are risking our lives”.
Regarding the lack of defensive forcefulness, with more than two months without keeping a clean sheet, Copete acknowledged that in the second round “it is costing more, because the rivals know you and your weak points and take advantage of them, but they are nuances that must be corrected because that makes you be higher or lower”, he specified.
Precisely in two specific actions they conceded the last defeat against Real Valladolid (2-0) despite which, the sports defender defended “the work and attitude” shown in the new José Zorrilla stadium.
The Andalusian player once again left the subject of his future on the back burner, as his relationship with Deportiva ends until the end of the season “because the head is now set on Ponferradina, on being focused on the Leganés and Amorebieta to try to be in the promotion phase and then things will be seen”.
