Rayo’s victory in Girona in this season’s first game unleashed optimism In Vallecas. In a historic season, with the return of the team to Europe 25 years laterthe beginning could not be better. And shortly after Jorge de Frutos received the call from the selection. He was the first ray player to be summoned by the National Team in this century. The last one had been Luis Cembrans also 25 years ago, When it seems that it happened the best in Vallecas.
Fruits premiered with the red playing 22 minutes in the win (0-6) against Türkiye, but the team’s debut in the season is not fulfilling what he promised. Since that triumph against Girona of Míchel, Rayo has only won in the previous phase of the Conference League Against the Neman Grodno. Europe has not yet a distraction because the Conference debuts next week. In the League he has added two draws, although one of them against Barcelona in Vallecas, and two losses, in the visits to Athletic Club and Osasuna. Nor of fruits, who won one of the goals against Girona, had scored again until the last match against Celta.
The goal is one of the ray problems. Has only marked five, one per day, but three concentrated in Girona. Although Íñigo Pérez, the coach, believes that they deserved something more in the last days. «We have fewer points and that generates frustration, but in no case do I say that we are not right»He says.
But Atlético’s situation is not much better than lightning. A point above are the rojiblancos in the classification, with one more draw and a defeat less than the Vallecano team.
«We cannot stay only in whether it has a bad streak or comes from a negative dynamic. You have to be aware that the potential it has is very high. Although now it seems that it is not right for the results, at any time you can be a victim, ”says Íñigo. «Atlético has been criticized for the shortage of play for yearsbut whenever I analyze it I have the feeling that it is A team that plays very well. It is one of the teams that I like the most, ”adds the Vallecano coach. “Simeone is an ideal coach,” says the Rayista coach.
