Coach Pepa’s comments after Vitoria de Guimarães-Arauca (1-3), match of round 23 of the I Liga Bwin
about the result: The reaction is a warp. We hit the bottom. We are living a nightmare and we have to get out of it with work and humility. Congratulations to Aroca, but we played against ourselves with and without the ball. It happened so bad it’s hard to believe. We’ve hit rock bottom. We cannot hide. We must be very strong to deal with this bad moment. We have to change this. “
What failed: “We were lacking in everything. Just look how we scored the equalizer. We were so naive. The ability to be objective, vertical and fierce throughout the game with and without the ball was gone.” Just look at how many easy balls we lost. You have to be strong enough to handle those moments. Arroca was better than us in the whole match. We have to look at ourselves. We have to look at ourselves, we have to be like ourselves. Vitoria players are better than this. The ball can “burn” at one time or another, but we have to know how to deal with this aggression. What happened is sad.”
Discomfort: “There were matches we didn’t win [no início da época], but the team was more comfortable. At the time, we wanted more. In this downward curve, it seems that all is lost. Everything happens. The space we have to give is missing. We’ve played a lot more now. We have to have that padding, that personality for her heart.”
passion: “There are very dangerous situations in life. There are people without work and health. We do what we love and we are in a great club. We must have a passion for the game, which we did not have on the field. Life is difficult, but not in football. We all want The win. We have to do a lot better. You can’t shrug your shoulders after hearing a few whistles. The fans whistled and they were right about it. That was nothing.”
