Corberan Stands Firm Amidst Valencia Fans Backlash

Valencia’s Struggles Continue After Defeat

The recent 2-0 loss has left Valencia teetering just one point above the relegation zone.

Fans Express Discontent

During the match, supporters voiced their frustrations by chanting “Corberan resign” at multiple moments. Following the game, coach Corberan addressed these sentiments.

Corberan’s Response

The coach acknowledged the fans’ disappointment regarding his leadership. He stated, “I recognize the discontent aimed at me.”

He elaborated, “In the closing moments, we aimed to bring in two forwards, but (Lucas) Beltrán was too fatigued. We were considering alternatives like (Largie) Ramazani. Hugo (Duro) is our leading scorer, and we were hopeful that a well-placed cross could secure us a point.”

A Commitment to Change

Corberan expressed his determination to improve the team’s situation. “I possess the resolve to persist. I observe that the team has the mental fortitude to compete. It is my responsibility to reverse this trend, and I am committed to altering our current trajectory.”
