It does not depend on anyone. Tomorrow, against Almería, comes the first great opportunity for Pacheta’s team to hit a double blow in the competition, winning and adding three points and stopping a direct rival such as Almería. The next play that is worth double will be the one in a few days in Ipurua against Éibar. Those direct hits to the rival will serve to cheapen the descent. The figure has to be around 79 points. That is to say, the pucelanos have fifteen to add. Five victories may be worth but it will be easier if the duels against Andalusians and Basques are won. The seven remaining games are finals, those of Almería and Eibar are much more than that. They are games that you have to win or, in the worst case, draw. Losing to Almería would mean staying four points behind Rubí’s side, with the goal average lost and morale on the ground. Win, get ahead and hit the monumental table. Tie leave things as they are, leaving a point behind and with a worse calendar. Even the dumbest realizes the importance of tomorrow’s match.
It is urgent to put Sergio León aside. It is indecency and there is no where to catch it. The situation invites bad thinking. An issue from October cannot be resolved now. And it cannot be punished sportingly, upsetting the competition, clearly benefiting some teams, due to an isolated event, outside the match and that, although it has not been good, does not seem to me so serious at all. In addition there is a clear provocation. I do not justify Sergio León’s performance, but this situation is an aberration. That said, let’s forget about it and beat Almería.
Real Valladolid has a squad and quality to win the game and to get promotion. His great enemy is himself. You must stop giving away defense, you need order, concentration, temperance so as not to leave the team with ten or commit an unnecessary penalty. If all that is achieved, the rest can be achieved.
It’s time for the fans too. Excellent as always the behavior of the Peñas being next to the players. But everything that is not an almost full field will be a bad approach of the club. Tomorrow we will know if the stingy policy when it comes to trying to fill the stadium works. My forecast, broadcast on Monday on La Cadena SER, is that the campaign was wrong if what was wanted was to fill the Zorrilla. I hope I’m wrong, but we’re not here for experiments. You have to try to fill the stands with truth, with formulas that have worked in the past, not with offers more typical of a hypermarket that only thinks about the business. Tomorrow we will clear up doubts and on Monday we will make a value judgment.
