Getafe midfielder, Angel Lafita, has declared that his side need to beat Real Sociedad in order to stay in the European places.
The side from the capital suburbs have been in fine form lately. They are currently on a four-game unbeaten streak in all competitions.
However, they cannot take their encounter with Sociedad lightly as they also pulled off a 5-2 away victory against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Valencia-c40863 at the Mestalla stadium.
Regardless, Lafita has stated that his side’s intention is to get all the three points in order to stay in the European places.
“We’re coming with the ambition to win, so that we don’t leave the European places.”
The midfielder commented on the dangers posed by their opponent and knows that it will be a challenging task for them.
“I don’t think you can have more ambition. It will be a difficult game; they scored five goals at Mestalla, which almost no one has done.”
The Spaniard had also words of praise for Real Sociedad. He recognizes the quality of their players and how good they are on the pitch. However, he is not concerned with all those things and has confidence in his teammates.
“They have very quick players, a lot of quality, so we have to be attentive. But we envy no one. We have the team to win there and at any stadium.”
The 28-year-old then remarked on his experience with the club since his arrival in the summer and said that he feels comfortable at where he is at the moment.
“I’ve been playing football for years and it’s the same everywhere.”
Finally, the former Real Zaragoza man gave his thoughts on the fact that the team’s strikers have scored just one goal between them this season.
Lafita simply said that he understands the challenges his teammates are facing and also mentioned that others are contributing to the goals pool.
“I’m not one to give advice. They’re doing an outstanding http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Job-c18684. It’s difficult to be a forward, but others are contributing goals.”
Their fine form in the Primera Division has taken them to the 6th position and just three points adrift of the much coveted fourth place for the Champions League.
