Mario Simón’s team welcomes Numancia tonight at the Enrique Roca stadium in a duel between two renowned clubs
Real Murcia has today (9:30 p.m.) the opportunity to give its fans their first joy. With more than 10,500 subscribers, the third best figure since the Grana entity was in the First Division, Mario Simón’s team receives a difficult rival but one that has not started well. Numancia has only added one point out of a possible nine.
Nerves and anxiety can play tricks on the Soriano team. Diego Martínez, Numantino coach, knows that a victory at the Enrique Roca would mean more than a turning point. Winning in Murcia would mean breaking the bad dynamics, a shot of morale and beating a direct rival for being in the upper part of the classification.
For its part, Real Murcia will want to reciprocate the push of the fans. The pepper entity is heading for 11,000 subscribers, and will surely break the record for members since its last campaign in the First Division. The actions carried out in the preseason and, ultimately, in the September Fair, have had an effect. The ‘Rico Pérez effect’, where the club achieved promotion against Penya Deportiva, has restored the illusion of a fan who wants to have the first joy at home.
«If we win we will strike; winning three games in a row in this category is going to be very difficult”, says Molina
With the confirmed loss of Alberto López, the Grana team will once again have sufficient resources in the different areas of the field. It seems difficult for men like Javi Rueda, Alberto González, Julio Gracia and Pablo Ganet, who are showing an outstanding level in these first league games, to fall out of the eleven. On the flanks, with Pedro León undisputed, Simón will have to opt for Loren Burón, Zeidane Inoussa or Dani Vega, Zubieta’s hero last week with his brace against Real Sociedad B.
Miku suffered discomfort in the clash in San Sebastián, and although the Grana coach says that he will be available, he can open the door to Andrés Carrasco’s ownership. Arnau Solà on the left-back and Miguel Serna under the sticks seem immovable today.
“The team has matured”
Mario Simón highlights the start of Real Murcia, which has added seven points out of a possible nine. “It’s a good start, reflected by a very good preseason. The people who have arrived new have adapted very quickly and have integrated very well into the group. Numancia is a team to be at the top, but history doesn’t win games. It is a very good team and that they have a point in three games is anecdotal. This type of team likes to come to stadiums like ours.”
For the coach from Granada, the starting eleven depends on the rival, the state of form and the work of the week: «We value the rival, our state of form and our day to day. From there, we will define the eleven. Everyone can participate and be important. For this reason, week by week we change details.
A victory tonight against Numancia would raise the morale of the team: «On a mental level it would be a blow to the table because winning three games in a row in this category is going to be very difficult. At the classification level it is still early, but emotionally it would strengthen the group and the work we have been doing. However, I do not value or look at the classification very much, ”said the Real Murcia coach yesterday.
