Head coach of Hercules and Murcia they respect each otherThey like each other and talk whenever they get the chance. They will meet face to face again tomorrow but this time it will be the grana coach who has the home advantage.
For them, to label a play as an empirically non-existent ending, error, so they don’t even name the word. have room for maneuver historical rivalry duel At Nueva Condomina, group 5’s two heavyweights have the main excuse not to put more pressure on the two locker rooms, which are experiencing gooey highs on a course marked by the unevenness of the two heavyweights.
«Not only the tactical aspects are studied, but also Psychological and emotional factors should be treated. We do it all week. The team is aware of where we are now and that we are mentally higher than 15 days ago. We’re ready to face the final stretch as needed,” says Mora.
At this point, and after many rhetorical tricks to avoid referring to the “death-or-death duel” feature that conflict in Enrique Roca can have, the question is simple: Does this Hercules have anything to prove or prove to himself? “Showing should always be demonstrated from day one. Show and show us that we are a good team, they are good players and I am a good coach. If you leave the games confident that you’ve given everything you have, you don’t have to do much more”, just before the Blue and Whites coach accepts an inevitable truth: “Now we have to take a step forward, all because it’s the right moment to do it.”
“We have to show that we are a good team, that we are good players and that I am a good coach.”
It’s scary to think about the Alicante team going in the second round. No wins, no goals… So it’s better not to think, says Sergio Mora. «We don’t think anything negative. it may hurt us, it doesn’t add us. There is good and bad data, but we do not roll in the bad, we always try to be positive. We are not attached to positive things, we are aware of what we do well and what we do wrong. The only thing that will help us beat Real Murcia is what we can do on the pitch and we focus on that. we don’t look to the future or the past, we live in the nearest present».
So what can we expect tomorrow? “Without exception, we all live with emergencies at this stage of competition. The outside environment will be the same, but the game, no, will be different from the first round because we are not the same team It will not be the same players.
Although he believes that the historic duel is not a final, the Hércules coach thinks it is transcendent: «If we lose something, of course we should not think that it will happen. It is a very important game for us, for the club and for our fans. We welcome and prepare the meeting in Nueva Condomina as it is: very very very important meeting», Morea repeats up to three times so that no one gets lost.
Mario Simonin line with its counterpart, nor does he consider collapse as an all or nothing. “I’m not looking beyond Sunday. Murcia’s goal is to win their next game, which will lift us up a position and give us confidence in the last days. All dates are important, we are in a week and part of the season with these games against such important opponents. very nice to play. these last days We remembered what our role as Rico Pérez meant to us.. We lost, yes, but from there my team came out stronger.
“Hercules is a team created to be an unorganized leader”
Murcia coach praising his opponent. “In my opinion we’ll see the Hercules we’ve seen all seasonIt is a team created to be a leader both in terms of structure and game profile, but lacks the regularity that we lack, has a lot of experience, and knows how to manage games. those complex moments », says Simon.
