Óscar Fernández: "We want to beat CD Alcoyano to have a better start to the second group stage”

VCF Mestalla will visit CD Alcoyano on Sunday 21st of March at El Coyao at 12 pm kick-off time for the final fixture of the first group stage of the season on matchday 18 in group III- B of Segunda B. 

“Playing at El Collao is always attractive, against a side who are in the top three. It’s one more reason to keep on growing and improving as a team.

 Coming off the back of a really tough first group stage, now we’re still looking to reach the 18- point mark which allows us to have a coefficient 1 towards the next group stage.

The win against La Nucia CF is just a win, but a significant one to assert the work that the boys have been doing. We were solid and played as a unit and showed that Segunda B presence.  It can be good for us without forgetting that this is a tough division and that we’re playing away at CD Alcoyano.   

I’m expecting a tough game with plenty of duels, with a direct type of play, second balls and quick transitions the deadball situations encapsulates the Segunda B. 

This competition format is crazy for us but entertaining for the fans. There’s no time to react or rectify. It’s going to be a standard Segunda B game that can help us to keep on growing because CD Alcoyano have had a sensational season, but we want to take all three points to close out the first group stage with coefficient 1”.
