Valencia CF coach, Carlos Corberán, appeared at a press conference before matchday 32 of LALIGA EA SPORTS 24-25 on Saturday, April 20 at 14:00, facing Rayo Vallecano at Vallecas Stadium.
Match
“Once again, a highly demanding match, in a different field in terms of dimensions that conditions the game, against a rival with a very clear identity: pressing a lot, being aggressive with and without the ball, and with very high energy throughout the match. The level of performance required for this match is enormous. It demands the maximum level of response and concentration.”
Sergi C. Tenés
“It was an important and beautiful goal there. With him, like with the rest, I work to extract the maximum performance. The opportunity comes for everyone and he is working very hard for when it arrives. We need everyone to be willing to give their best, and I see the whole group working with a huge level of commitment to achieve the goal.”
Vallecas
“The field is the narrowest and shortest, which conditions the game. Also, the style of the opponent to make you uncomfortable to the maximum. They are one of the teams with the most intensity, with the most sprints in LALIGA and high intensity. The explosive distance is the highest. The match will be very fast-paced and frenetic.”
Vestuario’s Excitement
“Our goal has not changed. It would be a mistake to think otherwise. Talking about new goals when the first ones have not been achieved is unrealistic, counterproductive, and foolish. The group has an intact maturity.”
Match Time
“We have to adapt to the schedule, and that affects the breakfast protocol, meeting… the group always trains in the morning, and I understand that the temperature and the habit of training in the morning will be similar tomorrow.”
Sadiq
“I am not worried about the forwards on my team. I have 3 extraordinary forwards. The level worries me when I don’t see performance or work, not whether they score or not. Scoring is not the only thing a forward does on the field. In every match, he has shown a lot of commitment and work.”
Team
“We have to focus on what depends on us. I believe in sensibility. I value a lot the work for every point the team earns. There are many hours of dedication from everyone. I am happy because the group is focused on the work. Our goal is to make people happy.”
Fans
“We have to live each match giving our all to achieve the goal and for the fans to identify with the team, regain the feeling of belonging and pride in how the team competes.”
Positive Results
“I perceive, feel, and know that behind every result there is work. Without work and effort, it is impossible to achieve it. I value all the players’ commitment. There are many hours, it is our work, duty, and responsibility. I don’t assess if it’s more of a miracle or not. I believe a lot in work and involvement. I see a mature, focused group, aware of how much each thing we achieve costs and eager to keep doing it.”
