FC Andorra coach Beto Company's statements at the press conference prior to the tricolour team's match against Lugo.

#ParauladeMíster | Pre-match vs Lugo

"We are all aligned and rowing in the same direction. We know which path we want to follow and we are convinced that this is the line to follow. Now we have to transform these feelings into good play and results."

"The pitch will be as it is, we will not use it as an excuse. We are aware of its situation and that recovery will be in the medium or long term, but we cannot get stuck there. We work every day to adapt and compete in the best possible conditions."

"The signings will add quality and depth to the team. Oriol [Busquets] brings us order and balance in midfield, Manel [Royo] will bring us sensational experience and versatility at left back. He is a guy with a lot of experience who comes from playing in the Dutch first division, so we are talking about a very high level. And Dani Villahermosa is a footballer with a lot of presence and even more future within the club. I think he is a player who will bring us dynamism inside."

"We are waiting for a match similar to last week. It will be a game in which we will have to mature it, where we will need patience and accuracy in the final meters. Hopefully we can open the score soon, because that would give us a lot of peace of mind."

"Getting a clean-sheet is fundamental. We are a team that is struggling to transform chances into goals, so defending well and not conceding will give us more options to add the three points."

"We believe that we will change things regarding the match or modify some aspects, but in essence we will be the same. This team and this club are not made to do anything else. We have to have the ball, be aggressive with it and attack maybe a little faster, a little more vertical, but always from the combination."

"Lugo will give us the initiative and will look to take advantage of mistakes. They are a solid team that will try to grow from the defensive order and the set pieces. We will have to be very precise to find spaces and generate dangerous chances."

"The coaching staff is on the sidelines of this situation. The ownership held a press conference and I think everything was very clear. From here on, the agreements they reach with the government do not affect us. These are extra-sporting situations and we have to worry about what happens on the pitch."
