The spirits after the last victory. “We have our batteries charged. It was a very important victory to establish ourselves in the prize places, but we have our feet on the ground. We have to be aware that we haven’t achieved anything yet, even though we are in a privileged place.”
Burgos B, already relegated. “We don’t have that idea in our heads. We have to go compete 100%, because it’s a good team. Now they’re off the hook in the standings, but neither their game nor their ability are in line with their position. It’s a very dangerous team, with players eager to please and who will compete until the end”.
Pedro Orfila. “It will be difficult for it to arrive.”
The absence of Jorge Fernández. “Jorge is being a regular because he is an important player, but there are other footballers who are now going to have the opportunity to claim their claim. They are all training very well day-to-day and these are the types of situations that have to be taken advantage of”.
Is the substitute clear? “There are several options, but I still don’t know who will start.”
Pablo Espina is back. “Pablo came to be an important footballer throughout the year. It is true that injuries weighed him down for part of the season, but we all know his abilities. Now he arrives at the right time to optimize them at the end of the season.”
Players without opportunities. “I do not agree with that. It is true that the numbers are there, all opinions must be respected, but due to some circumstances or another, in the end, everyone has the opportunity to represent themselves. The example is in Jorge’s sanction now. Everyone we are important and anyone can turn the tables at any time”.
A full bus to go to Burgos. “It is a source of pride to see all the support from the fans, both at Suárez Puerta and away from our field. That makes us responsible and motivates us a little more so as not to let them down”.
Javi Vázquez, Langreo coach
Valuation of the last tie. “Since I arrived here the idea has been to value the positive part. Despite the fact that at the end of the game the tie tasted little to me, it is clear that the game was not good. The team was too fast, we were disorganized as a result of wanting to go for the game. The conditions of the first minutes killed us. But now, with the passage of time, we have valued what we did much more. We have a point that we didn’t count on at first and we have reduced the distance to our rivals, that they did not manage to add”.
The duel against Gymnastics. “It’s yet another final. It’s going to be very difficult to win, as was seen the other day against the bottom team. Also, they come with their permanence practically assured, so I expect another very difficult game. They are a team that dreams of getting into the play-offs. off. We have to assert the need we have to score points”.
Differences from the first round. “I expect a different game, especially for us. We are a very different team from the one that went to Torrelavega. The game profile will be totally different from that of the first round.”
The support of the fans. “It is something that cannot be quantified, but for the boys that support is vital. Feeling the affection from the people helps to get a good version of the team. We are all for and for the players and the fans are an important leg. The footballers are the ones who are allowing us to enjoy the fight for permanence. Our players are going to give a much higher level of performance with the fans cheering”.
