Villacampa: “The team will progress as the days go by”
Athletic Club ladies’ team coach evaluates in Buñol the defeat of the team in the first matchday of the Primera Iberdrola
After the 2-0 defeat of Athletic Club against Levante UD due to goals during the second half, Ángel Villacampa wanted to keep a “very good” first 45 minutes, despite the “inconvenient” injury of Nekane Díez as soon as the game began. “Each injury is multiplied by two, we are a team that is identified with certain players. Now it’s time for us to rebuild, it’s time for other players to come out and show that they have a place here.”
Villacampa has highlighted the strengths and especially the depth of the team: “There are two level players per position; it is a team in which by making changes, the team not only goes down, but improves what was there.”
The coach of Athletic Club wanted to end his speech with words of optimism about the future of the competition: “This has just begun. The team will go from less to more as the days go by and we strengthen as a team with all the work we are doing in Lezama.”
Oihane and Leia statements
Oihane Hernandez and Leia Zarate, as well as their coach, also consider that they have done “a very good first part.” Oihane said that “after the first goal, they kept attacking until they got the second, which was the decisive one.” Leia, however, acknowledged that “this requires us to give more in the next matches.”
