Elche CF coach Sebastián Beccacece showed: The team’s enthusiasm to do great things in the Copa del ReyAs has been done at other times at the club, such as when reaching the cup final in 1969. For this purpose the coach ensures: “We must approach Linares with enthusiasm to continue dreaming”. At a press conference a few minutes ago, the Argentinian coach emphasized that the knockout tournament “is a competition that creates a lot of expectations and connects us to the essence of this game. Here, any team, no matter how small, can compete against professionals from different countries.” categories.”higher”.
Currently the big one is Elche, the next opponent is the small Linares. But the team is convinced to keep moving forward so they can enjoy the competition and new rivals that may soon be far superior.
“The possibility of being able to imagine these things always creates excitement, which is why we put so much time and effort into it. We are already working on the Cup, although we have not yet been able to enjoy the victory against Alcorcón the other day. We are so connected that all our energy is focused on Thursday’s game. “As in every competition,” said Beccacece, who trained yesterday, today and tomorrow before going to the city of Jaen, without giving the players any rest this week.
Regularity in the cup too
For the coach, Cup matches are also part of the team’s business. “We are trying to find regularity and we have to be very keen to find that level of consistency which is very costly in football. We must begin to provoke deeper changes, and all of us who face the present will do so. “This is a very costly behavior and habit, but it also brings great rewards,” he explains.
“We don’t keep anything secret”
“We are under constant tension and demand, working constantly, with high intensity…”. So for this match? “We’re not holding anything back. Moreover, this is an opportunity for some to shine.”Like in the case of Mou or Adam against Europa. This is a tremendous area of opportunity for some who don’t play because it’s so important for them to be able to connect with the person next to them. This is a very good fight and the football players need to see it that way. “This match will be very important for us”
Beccacece is open to the possibility of a young player playing. We also experienced the losses of Guti, Álex Martín and John. And tomorrow we will define what the eleven will be. “The idea is for those involved to represent Elche with a defined style, prepared for a complex scenario, with an incoming coach whose dreams are very high and must be matched with enthusiasm.”
There will be many changes in the starting team compared to the LaLiga team and the manager has not defined this yet. Yes, the goalkeeper position. If you asked Edgar Badia Beccacece, who will be the goalkeeper of the cup, confirmed this fact and underlined the following: “I’m waiting for this match so that he can play. “It’s a pleasure to see Edgar play and he will continue to do so in this competition.”
With your guard up
According to the Argentine coach, “There are a number of circumstances that make this Cup match very attractive. You have to be open to the challenge and always keep your guard up because when you relax or think about the dynamics, your possibilities suddenly disappear.” These areas are so difficult to reach that you have to make every effort to achieve this much-desired regularity. This has a cost, wear and tear, and the energy investment that must be made to always remain at these levels. Living with discomfort, pain, fatigue… I know it is not easy, but if we want to change the corporate mentality towards this regularity, we need to make more efforts.”
Which game are you waiting for?
The opponent from the Primera RFEF team is having a bad time. They are 17th in the league standings and have only won 3 matches. They had two draws in their last five matches this season. Their dynamics are negative, but “against a team that has had such a bad period” When I’m most awakeAnd this is how I informed my players. Because you always think that this could be an opportunity to change your streak.” Physically, Elche is “in great shape. We are at the top of the league with high intensity and continue to be the most intense in the Second League. We have to show this in Linares.”
The coach also emphasized that: “Sleep is one of the few things in life that are free. And yes, we dream of continuing to advance in the competition. Then you have to work for your dream. You should always dream. Feet on the ground and head in the sky. You have to dream. Without making promises. Only the purest. Why don’t we dream? But we also need to support this through action.”
Positive win in the league
The results “are very important for the group of football players. They knew how to live with the crisis and find the best versions of themselves.” and above all with the idea of a game. “We have collected the most points in League Two since the game against Andorra but we are not yet in a play-off position, which shows the demands of this competition and shows that we cannot relax for a moment.”
According to Beccacece, “the best thing is to go match by match. We are aware of the consistency we have achieved, but it would be a sin to rely on it. That’s why we invite players to keep working because the effort is huge. We work on commitment, unity, humility, rebellion… These values are important to me. “It is easy to get comfortable, to have some rights, to become bourgeois… But all these take away our right to change, which we have and which requires us to be constant at all times.”
