Head coach of "Espanyol," Manolo Gonzalez, shared his thoughts during a press conference ahead of the Spanish league's Round 13 match against "Sevilla." The match is scheduled for November 24 at 23:00 Moscow time.
"We want to play a good game and return to winning ways. For me, every game is of equal importance because we want to earn three points and secure another victory on our home ground.
Our team will apply an attacking strategy as we have throughout the season," the coach said in an interview with the club's official website. "Sevilla is a physically strong team that employs high pressing.
On their good days, they can beat any opponent, as we saw when they defeated 'Barcelona.' However, we will also give it our all from the first minute of the game." "We need to secure more 'clean sheets' and be effective in attack.
Last year, it was very difficult for us to approach the opponent's penalty area. This year, the situation is different: we are entering that zone ten times more often, but winning games remains a tough challenge.
Only teams at the top can achieve three or four consecutive wins. For the rest, the struggle requires more effort." Gonzalez also addressed La Liga management, emphasizing the need to abandon Monday night games, taking inspiration from other leagues, as these matches negatively affect attendance figures.
"Espanyol" currently holds 6th place with 18 points, while "Sevilla" sits in 9th place with 16 points.
