Morale in Andorra after breaking the bad streak of six consecutive defeats
“It’s true that I never usually talk about winning and I know that just saying it isn’t worth it,” said Eder Sarabia.
Eder Sarabia, coach of FC Andorra, had no qualms in recognizing the objective of Saturday (4:15 p.m.) in El Plantío: “The message is clear: We want to be the first to win in Burgos.”
The Principality’s team faces a rival that has two draws and five wins at home. “Burgos is a team that, above all, is very clear about what it has to do in El Plantío. They feel very safe at home and are braver and aggressive,” said Eder Sarabia.
FC Andorra They broke a streak of six consecutive defeats as a visitor on Sunday with a 0-0 draw against Villarreal B. “This draw helps us even though we were playing good games and we deserved much more. The other day in Villarreal we competed well although we had three or four mistakes that almost cost us a goal. Of course, we generated a lot and the feeling we gave of solidity is positive.”
In the previous press conference, Eder Sarabia talks about winning in Burgos and this time not about the style of play. “It’s true that I never usually talk about winning and I know that just saying it is not enough. Above all, I hope to have the necessary mentality to beat a rival who is the best at home this season.”
He hopes to find the formula that rivals have not found. “Burgos’ rivals have not been able to develop an idea to do more damage and I hope that we will be the first to find the key. It is a beautiful challenge.”
The team’s situation does not help. The descent is one point away. “Unconsciously it is natural and human that if you are down in the standings you have more fears and insecurities, but this team has shown that it is capable of doing things with personality.”
Eder Sarabia is not worried about the lack of a goal. “We are a team that generates and we only lack success. We work with it and these players will surely score goals. It’s time to convey peace of mind and help them mentally. I tell them that if they play well, the goal usually comes.”
Against Villarreal B the game system was changed and they played with a 5-3-2 and against Burgos they do not want to reveal if it will be played the same. “Burgos is a team that demands a lot from you in the last line. We will see what the script demands of us and we are prepared for different things“, said.
Jandro Orellana and Pablo Moreno will return for this match and Christos Almpanis, Martí Vilà, Álex Pastor and Rubén Bover will remain absent.
