Málaga has joined the reforestation plan in those incomparable Coin mountains within the framework of an action called ‘Malaguista Lung‘ with the presence of the club’s women’s and Genuine teams and the player from the men’s first team Javi Jiménez. The judicial administrator of the club, José María Muñoz, and some fans were also there. Together they planted 300 small trees in an area of Coín that burned in 2007. Eucalyptus, rosemary, thyme, curnicabra… An action sponsored by the judicial administrator, José María Muñoz.
An emotional, brilliant and necessary initiative in an incomparable environment. Coín is one of those places that is always worth visiting. The presence of Francisco, Mayor of Coín, and Cristóbal Ortega, Deputy for Sports, should be highlighted. PROAM, which is with whom Malaga organizes Pulmón Malaguista, which is within the umbrella within ‘Malaguistas por Naturaleza’ that sponsors actions such as vehicle recharging, waste collection. Sustainability actions. We must mention the sponsorship of San Miguel and the Diputación de Málaga and the Ayuntamiento de Coín. And the associations INPAVI, Piel de Mariposa and César Ramírez.
Javi Jiménez spoke to the media after planting, in those incomparable hills of Coín, that rosemary that, they say, brings good luck. This was what he commented. “This is something very important in a club like Málaga, the social mass that moves not only here in Málaga but at a national level, that they turn to this type of Pulmón Malaguista events, with this reforestation is something fundamental. Málaga shows day by day that for all these types of events and whatever is needed, it is always there.
Never better, said, since Guede has arrived, Malaga is a better planted team. “Yes. I think it is a team that since the new coach arrived, we try to get the ideas that he wants so as soon as possible to contribute what he asks of us. Not only with Pablo but throughout the year Unfortunately we have had better and worse streaks, but the team is always willing to improve weekend after weekend”.
A Malaga with better air. “Totally. The reality of football is that what gives you air is that luck of scoring points. Last week we added that point (referring to the one against Valladolid) that we don’t know much about because of how the game went. This week we added three in Butarque and that gives us air and strength to face this Saturday’s game against the leader”.
It is clear that Malaga sows to harvest. “It is a team with different characteristics compared to the previous Málaga. He’s very intense and works hard and he’s trying to pick up those nuances that the coach is giving us to try to capture them this weekend in the best possible way”.
Was winning in Leganés a liberation? “Totally. It was a relief. Not just for us. For the club and the city it was very important because it was something that we all needed because of how the classification was going and because I think the team had been doing a lot of things well that, due to circumstances, we were not seeing rewarded. Neither we nor the people”.
What Malaga are we going to see against Eibar? “You are going to see the same Malaga of these two days ago. An intense, hard-working Málaga that goes for the game from minute one, that doesn’t hide and isn’t going to speculate on the result and that is going to try to get the three points at all times”.
The Amorebieta squeezes. You have to walk with the rearview mirror. “We totally agree on that. We have done absolutely nothing. We have won a game and the distance remains the same. We try to evade classification. We have to do our job, get the three points and then we’ll see”´
Expect a full Rose Garden? “Totally. We know that they have been cheering us on throughout the year from the first moment. We understand that hobbies must be given. We will try to continue giving them. This weekend we are going to try it like on the day of Valladolid. We hope you continue to support us. In addition, the game is played at a very good time and they should not doubt that we are going to leave everything to keep the three points”.
What is Eibar waiting for? “I expect a very good Eibar with a great team and excellent players. And I expect a lot from my team.”
