“Where there is life, there is hope”. Even if the statement doesn’t radiate faith, it sounds succinct, mundane, needing to believe. The feeling that the season of Hercules could end with one last failure scatter like a pencil stain in the pocket of his doctor’s coat.

It’s every professional’s dream to play in stadiums like ours every Sunday, but judging by the numbers, we are better than at home,” complains the blue-and-white coach.
“No Pattern”
Lolo Escobar’s team does not follow a recognizable style because “conditions force us to change it every week,” he assumes. “There have been a lot of changes in the team, a lot of important losses. We had to be chameleon and adapt to what we had, and that challenged us. change the first idea a lot» explains Don Benito technician, who wants to know why they are the way they are. distressed football players on the field.
