Manuel Pellegrinicoach of Real Betissaid this noon at the press conference prior to the derby against Sevilla that will be played this Sunday at 9:00 p.m. at the stadium Benito Villamarín that «the team arrives well. With the FIFA stops that all the scheduled teams have and that are good to recover players. I see them very clear, in the responsibility we have to defend a position for Europe next year and the city’s derby is added. You cannot abstract from extra motivation in the two teams. We hope to return with a very good game and a triumph ».
«One always believes that excess motivation leads one to commit a greater capacity for mistakes, but one must have experience and awareness to know how to behave in the field. Cold head and hot heart. Mistakes are made and there may be expulsions that condition the parties. We must know how to handle the emotion and possible excess motivation of these games seriously, tranquility and good functioning, ”said Pellegrini.
The Chilean was consulted for his statistics in the derbies in LaLiga and if he is going to prepare something specific for this duel. «I face it as the previous derbis, knowing the importance it has for the fan of winning these points. Our goal is to achieve an important achievement, a classification. I hope that is united to win certain games but I think that knowing the importance of the derbis the key is to achieve achievement at the end of the season. It is added that this game is a derby to fight important things in these last ten dates, where achievements are decided. In everything around it is to handle in the tranquility and the importance of a derby in the city, “he insisted.
«All matches are different. In the first round we had clear chances and a penalty was more than conflicting that made the difference at the end. When in a derby you have goal opportunities and not the concrete and they charge you a penalty there are moments of the game in which the players feel it. Then we recovered and had the possibility of drawing it. I will continue trying to make this team improve in its operation and that the achievement in the end is to achieve European competition and not win certain matches. The important thing is to have achievements. It is not winning a game. It is general, there are games that are much better to win them and from the first minute. We have always gone to win the game and for different reasons it was not achieved. We continue the same line of five years ago, get something important for the club «, he considered.
What party does Pellegrini expect in this derby? «Intense, with emotion from the gallery since before it begins. I wish there is a good football, not only that there is rivalry but show. They are three important points for both of them. Sevilla does not have the potential of campus of previous years because it does not play in Championsbut it is an important team with unbalanced players. They have changed technician on many occasions in recent years and has cost them to have an identity. He is a complicated rival and shows his visit figures. We are pending and very convinced that we are going to have a difficult opponent and that we are not going to have the three insured points. Let’s go out for the triumph from the first minute «.
Questioned about Isco or Lukebakioplayers who stand out for their level in both teams, Pellegrini pointed out that “I have always said that it is the players individually in the operation of a group that decide the games. Then there are expulsions, criminals, errors … I want the team to look for the three points. The players know what they have to do, that they are handled with the extra with other games of the emotional surplus from the week and stands. Do not fall into provocations or things outside the sports part. You have to go looking for the game from the first minute, as we do with all the rivals ».
«Every time you enter the field you have to do it with the conviction that there is no easy rival, which is always the most difficult. We must demonstrate favoritism. This team is the same one who lost with Celta after going 0-2 and then has taken fifteen points. Football is unpredictable. The foreseeable thing is that one has to intend to do their best and with the least amount of errors, ”he continued.
On the open door on Saturday, Pellegrini pointed out that “we have done it on other occasions as well. During my stage once a year it has always been done. It was estimated to be done this week to try to continue with a tonic that before a derby motivates people. People do not need more motivation but It is no more important if it is handled in the usual parameters«.
He was also asked by the Board of Shareholders of Sevilla and his possible incidence. «I have enough with all the subjects here inside the Betis to think about that. I have neither heard nor know anything. I don’t know the rival, I just mean my team, ”he closed.
