omidbasir- Eduardo Coudet, the head coach of Alavés, expressed his relief following the team’s victory over Betis, a win that allowed them to escape the relegation zone for the first time since December 6th.

Coudet stated, “We needed this win, despite having felt positive about our performances in recent matches. We approached the game with determination in both halves. The players delivered an impressive performance against a highly esteemed opponent.”

He further elaborated, “The schedule has presented its challenges; we faced defeats in our last two away games against formidable rivals. However, the team has continued to work diligently. I am confident that this group can play well and does not deserve to be in such a precarious position. The league has been harsh in terms of our points tally. We will strive to continue playing well and winning matches.”

On the team’s mentality, Coudet remarked, “We have aimed to play attractive football, which we have demonstrated in various matches. I see the players every day, and their conviction brings me peace of mind. If we maintain this approach, we will be in good shape.”

He also praised Benavidez, noting, “Benavidez has been performing well in his role, and it is a testament to his hard work in adapting to this position and effectively supporting the team. I value that even while facing a challenging contractual situation, he has been providing exceptional internal competition.”

Regarding his personal situation, Coudet stated, “I feel balanced, as the competition is intense. Every league match is difficult, especially when playing away. We have become strong at home, and we need to start earning points on the road. The club’s primary objective is survival, and I was aware from the beginning of the season that maintaining our status would be crucial at Mendizorroza.”
