The Tías players travel back to the Basque Country next weekend on matchday 16 to face Petronor Muskiz Eskubaloia in Vizcaya, a team that this week has lost widely at home to Schär Zaragoza (42-29), a defeat that places them in the last position of the standings, with two points, with a balance after fifteen matchdays of one victory and fourteen defeats.
The conejero coach Miguel Ángel Lemes explained after the match that "the match was quite complicated, we did well in the first half but the second half was quite difficult for us, they made an individual defense, we were not so fine in defense, we could not counterattack, in static attack we had quite a few difficulties but in the end we were able to win, which is the important thing".
Regarding the last minutes of the match, Lemes explains that "they managed to tie us but in the end a couple of interventions by Andrea, the goalkeeper, put us two up, they scored a goal with forty seconds left but we knew how to keep the ball and there were no more shots and we won by one. We knew how to react, the match became complicated for us but we knew how to win".
Regarding the sensations after the Christmas break and various injuries, Lemes explains that "the week was strange, it didn't go well for us, with many people affected by illness, selections, I think that little by little we will pick up the pace we had at the end when we finished, which we were quite good and the break was bad for us but that is not a reason but to continue working and return to the level we had. Now we have an away game that, in theory, is feasible against the bottom team that is losing by many goals and then we have another game that we have to pick up the pace again to face the more complicated games.".
Miguel Ángel Lemes now expects a week that will start "this Monday with recovery training, we rest on Tuesday and then Wednesday, Thursday and Friday to accumulate some more work already thinking about the match because here you don't have to underestimate anyone but thinking about physical load to recover, we hope that the affected players will recover and we will all be available next week", concludes the conejero coach.
