Valverde: “The key is to overcome the penalty failure”

Date:

As usual, Valverde He was stopped in the press room of Nuevo Mirandilla despite the 0-4 endorsed by Athletic to Cádiz and the superiority shown by his team on the third day of the League. The Gasteiz player emphasized that this was an important moment because it was the first away game. “This is the first game away from home, we want to show ourselves away from home. We tried to control the game, but Cádiz is in a difficult situation (two defeats in the first two games). Maybe they are a little nervous. We are settling into the game, with the first goal we calmed down and the missed penalty decreased a bit, but we have gradually improved”, pointed out the rojiblanco coach.

What was the key? Txingurri is clear on this matter: “Overcome the penalty decision. When you play away and also at home, there is always an emotional moment where the rival can be hooked in the game. Having the ability to overcome that situation in what we do to continue establishing ourselves is important.”

The coach reiterated the importance of winning away from home. “If we want to be competitive, a strong team and feel good, we have to maintain a regular line both at home and away. It’s true that it’s getting more complicated. Many of our people are in the field. This game is important not for the result but for the game and somehow recognize ourselves”, he added.

The team continues without taking a goal. He went back to keep the gate at zero. “We don’t give the opponent too many chances. We want to continue in this line. The best way to score goals is to create chances, then you can be more or less successful, but that’s the way to go, like today”, he stated.

Some would say this has been a demerit for Cádiz. Valverde he prefers to put the focus on his team. “It is true that they are in a compromising situation and face the clash after two games without scoring. When that happens, a team is more nervous, but for us it is important to start well. I always look at the merit of the team and not the rival’s demerit because a team with problems can also come out with intensity to solve the game. I don’t want to focus on the rival, I prefer to focus on us”.

The worst news of the night was the injury of Inaki Williams. The forward retired injured. His coach indicated it was a sprained ankle in the absence of tests he will undergo throughout the week. His replacement is Gorka Guruzetawho scored two goals: “Guru He is a player with a goal, shoots quickly and has a bad idea when he shoots on goal”.
