With more than 300 matches as a professional between First, Second and Second B, Óscar Sánchez vto be a professional football classic of the first decade and a half of the 2000s. He defended the shirts of Badajoz, Jaén, Atlético B, Valladolid or Murciawith whom he lived the fateful criminal of Kiko Mouse Montilivi which sent them to Segona B in 2010. In his career he also faced several times a Michel, who does it say it is? “a gift” for football and for coaches starting out, like him. The Oriola coach considers that Girona’s visit is also a gift for the club and the fans. “The co-leader of Primera comes, the team that scores the most goals, which is tied with Madrid. With medium- and long-term projects and consistency, it’s normal to get where you want to be,” explained Sánchez, speaking of Girona. Of Míchel, the coach from Murcia went further and put him as a “example and mirror” for coaches who are in lower categories. “Now nobody questions his ability, but he was dismissed and he had to plow his way. He will even have doubted his way of seeing football”, he said.

Oriola is not going through a good time in the League and occupies places of relegation to Third RFEF. The dynamics are not good and the week has been complicated after the defeat against the subsidiary of Cádiz to the Arches (2-4). “It was easy to change the chip. We’ve been waiting for this match for a month now. We are frustrated and worried, yes, but now we have our heads on the Cup.” In this sense, Sánchez warns that Oriola will leave with the intention of discussing possession with Girona. “We will compete. We’ll try to take the ball away from them, enjoy and pass the ball.”

Míchel is going to eliminate the Cup

Óscar Sánchez landed last season at Oriola, where he has his first experience as a solo coach. Last year it achieved promotion to Second RFEF and this year it is struggling to get the team out of the lower part of the classification. Before arriving at Oriola, Sánchez had been second coach of José Manuel Aira to the Cultural Leonesa. There, he faced in L’Osca de Míchel in the Cup during the season (2019-20). The tie was expensive for Sánchez’s team, which eliminated Míchel’s with a goal in added time (2-1). “In a League we wouldn’t have anything to do with it, but in a match, everything adjusts and the distances get shorter”, said the coach who also eliminated that season l’Atlético de Madrid with the Cultural “It’s a special match. We don’t know when a Primera will come back to Oriola. It’s time to enjoy and who knows if it could be a turning point”, he said.
