Pablo Larrea’s withdrawal from suspension opens the doors wide for Álex Corredera to return to the starting eleven. It would be a big surprise if that doesn’t happen since the Catalan is one of the players most used by Luis Miguel Ramis, although the last two games he came off the bench. “We will try to finally string together three consecutive games by winning and hopefully this week,” the midfielder wished.
The footballer expects a very good atmosphere at the Heliodoro this Friday. “The more we are, the better. As the end draws near, people will have to get excited and follow the example of those who already attend. It’s wonderful to be on the pitch. the match, in the good and bad moments. If we extrapolate it, if instead of 9,000, 10,000 or 11,000 15,000, 16,000 or 17,000 can attend, then much better”, he said.
In that sense, he reported that of the six remaining days, three are at home. “We are playing a very nice thing that is to go up to the First Division. There is no excuse or other pretext to see it there. For example, in my case, a year ago I was fighting to go up to Second B and now I find myself trying to get it to First It’s a dream,” he admitted.
Corredera commented that for some time, it seems that direct promotion is a matter of three, “but we are calm, doing our job and looking towards the seventh, which is the one that marks the playoff zone. It is where we want to be and get away from the pursuers is key. But it is true that, if you move away, you get closer to the top where there are three great teams, in addition to some that are pressing. Score points”.
He recalled that the first round match in Huesca “was exciting. They have a great team, with level players and they are called to be up there. It is true that they started regularly, but lately they are in good dynamics and with the aim of getting hooked there up. Getting three points would make us hit the table,” he said.
Finally, he stressed that Tenerife has been in Playoff positions all year “and that means that the team has been doing things well during those 36 games. We want to continue like this so that, when the 42nd comes around, we continue in these areas. Illusion is the most important thing and we have 18 points at stake to see how far it goes. We’ll fight until the end”.
