These were the statements made by coach Beto Company at the press conference prior to the match against Amorebieta, held this Constitution Day at Estadi Nacional.
#ParauladeMíster | Pre-match vs Amorebieta
"First of all, let me congratulate all the Andorrans on Constitution Day and wish them a happy day".
"I think it is a very difficult match for several reasons: the first because they have not lost at home since October and since the change of coach they have numbers to be out of relegation. And, in addition, at home they are getting particularly positive results against teams that are above us. They are getting very meritorious results, they got three consecutive victories at home and, for us, that is precisely what is costing us, winning away from home".
"We want to learn from mistakes. Recent mistakes like the game against Unionistas where it was not enough to have a lot of possession, to make a lot of passes, to shoot more than the opponent because we even have the feeling that we could have conceded another goal. And that's what we're focused on: we know that we do a lot of things well with the ball, but we have to focus on the disputes, the counterattacks we receive, the set pieces... which is what is penalizing us the most."
"Winning four of the last five games gives us energy. It reaffirms that the line is good. But it's clear that we also want to see ourselves at the top. It's clear that the most important thing is to see ourselves there on matchday 38, which is the place where everyone, from the club's ownership to the last of the workers, wants to see ourselves. Because it's the place that belongs to us and the objective for which this squad has been created. It's important to be there, but it will also be important not to leave it."
"The moments of the match have to be managed. We have to avoid frustration when things don't go our way. We have to improve. In the last match we had a bad first half and a good second, so if we had given up we wouldn't have been able to lift the match".
"The opponent hasn't lost at home since October. We face a major challenge".
"We have midfielders of exceptional quality. The headaches to get them to play are welcome. I don't know if our growth is determined by these players or because our day-to-day is very good, but with the reinforcements in the midfield we have raised the level. And, in addition, we are reaching the best versions of Sergio Molina and Álvaro Peña, who are fundamental for us".
