Álvaro Cervera's first press conference of 2022. Cádiz coach spoke to the media telematically from the club’s training ground press room to analyse the match against Sevilla FC on Monday. "The fact that we are training on Monday morning is because we know who we can count on. Since we've been training until today, we've been working with an average of fourteen absentees. The absentees due to injury may arrive with a few training sessions, and the absentees due to COVID have not been able to train at all. We've trained with a lot of absentees. Tomorrow we'll see if any of them can join us on the bench".
The rival. "Preparing for the match now is utopian because we usually prepare with the usual players and the usual things of the other team. We don't know which players they have available. It's a lottery. It's going into the game with the healthiest players and if it has to be out of position then so be it. The normal thing is that Sevilla, a Champions League team, even if they have players out, will try to take advantage of the situation. We will try to turn it around, being an anomalous situation, and try to take advantage of it to win".
Match against Real Madrid. "That game was very useful, not only for us internally but also externally. There is a lot of important data in that game. For the big majority they are negative data, but for Cádiz they have always been positive and will continue to be so. Possession, kilometres covered with and without the ball, etc. I can't see any other way to save us than playing like this. Not only against Madrid, but against all teams. I think Cádiz have to play like this, whether it's more or less attractive, and it's the only way to get points. I knew that Madrid were going to find it hard to beat us. When we want to do other things, we have doubts and when we have doubts we are the worst team".
