Fernando described the first section of the course as “amazingly high”

Almería goalkeeper Fernando Martínez described his team’s early season performance as “remarkably high” on Tuesday, which is fourteenth in LaLiga with a 5-point lead over the relegation zone, and appealed to continue to be “strong at home. ” when it continues after the World Cup.

“If they had told us that we will reach the break with 16 points and in such a comfortable situation, anyone would have signed it. There is still a lot left and now it is time to prepare for the next leg of the season,” said the captain of the rojiblanco team, who returned this campaign to the highest category.

He emphasized that they have chained four victories at home and five at home, where rivals “respect” them when they visit the Power Horse Stadium; although he admits that the pending issue is to improve and add more to the house, because, if they do, they have “many ballots to achieve the goal.”

The Murcian goalkeeper considered that one of Almería’s “strong points” is that they are “a team that knows how to adapt well to the situation of each game, to each opponent”, and also “to suffer”; and added that at home, in addition, they showed that they have “very strong minutes, which cause a lot of danger in a very short time.”

Fernando emphasized that, after a good start to the league, they suffered a bad run of four games without scoring and was “difficult”, which he attributed to the fact that “the team is under construction”, although later was “the first victory against Rayo served to gain confidence and saw the best of Almería since then”.

“Except for Bilbao, the team has always competed. The break is a shame because we are in a good moment,” he pointed out, but warned that they have not done anything because they are now “in a comfortable situation, but it is artificial only.”, because in the lower zone “there are teams like Sevilla, Celta or Espanyol who should be at the top”.

The veteran goalkeeper of Almería emphasized that now they must “do the preseason” and face the World Cup break “remembering that they have to return properly because everything is not yet decided”, and said that the return to the competition in Christmas is in Cádiz. , “an important game” because it is “a direct rival” for permanence.

“We are in an atypical season with this long break, the dynamics will be broken and some may be better and others may not. When the League resumes, the teams will start with a new dynamic,” said of Fernando, for whom this delay could be similar in 2020 due to the COVID-19, where he recalled that “Zaragoza was launched, to promote more than enough, and the break came that could affect the his.”
