Natalie Arroyo He is confident that Real will ring the bell on his continental debut. “They are favourites, they are the ones around the quarterfinals and semis,” he said, referring to Bayern Munich, a realistic rival in the tie ahead of the Champions League. “We have our options, we’ll see if they are many or few,” says the coach ahead of tomorrow’s game, Tuesday (7:00 pm) in Anoeta.
“Bayern is a super team and has a lot of weapons, but so do we,” said the Catalan coach, adding that “there is a difference” between being the favorites, which are the Germans, “and then pass.” “We believe in our choices and I hope the public will too.”
aggressiveness and success
Arroyo knows the difficulty of getting the “best version” against a “European great” like Bayern, but insists that “if we get close to it, it will be good.” He sees it as important to have a sufficient level of “aggressiveness” and “success” to be successful because Bayern have many virtues, but they also make mistakes, for example when they get the ball out. “If we look like the team that finished second in the league, we have a lot of options tomorrow.” For that, he mentions two other important elements: “Strength and faith in the big days.”
believe Natalie that Real can work in different registers and “call for danger” in different ways: through possession or against: “We can also run and we have the artillery to hurt them.”
He did not hide, in any case, that Bayern “is a very, very complete team.” Among the strings of his virtues, are these aspects: “Take care of possession of the ball, try to start in a controlled way, alternate long and short games, outside and inside, gather people in the intermediate space and play space very well.”
The high rhythm of the game
Natalia believes that Real’s big deficit with physical squads like Bayern is in “maintaining a higher rhythm of play” and that is where they must improve. “We will be able to see how far or how close we are to them. We are not the strongest in Europe, but we are not far away,” he maintains.
He does not believe that the coach will feel the pressure of being rookies in Europe, on the contrary: “I see the team with a spark with something big coming tomorrow, with confidence and concern that everything is 100% under control”. He is convinced that it is a match “endure it, but also to enjoy it”.
