Antequera CF, currently in a challenging period in Group II of Primera Federación, faces its final six league matches with the primary goal of securing its place in the division, having gone five games without a victory.
The demanding nature of Group II of Primera Federación has shifted Antequera CF's objectives. After failing to capitalize on opportunities to reach the promotion play-off spots, the team has now endured five consecutive winless matches, including four losses and one draw. This concerning run has raised alarms, and the club is urgently seeking to accumulate points to move away from the relegation zone.

"Right now, I believe we are conceding far fewer chances to the opposing team. I think we are doing enough up front to score more goals than we have, but the results are there. We have dropped points, and we can no longer dwell on the past. We need to change the dynamic. How do you change the dynamic? By training, working hard, trying not to let the small details slip away. We need to get the points as soon as possible to save our category."
The extensive experience of Raúl Albentosa, a key figure in the 'blanquiverde' locker room, will be crucial in guiding the team through this critical period. With a long sporting career, his leadership on and off the pitch is considered essential to reverse the current situation and achieve the necessary results for survival. The player emphasizes the importance of focusing on the present and their own performance.

"There are many interesting players in the team, because there are people with the ability to play at a higher level. So I think we've had a bad run now, and if we manage to win the Murcia game and then we come home and manage to win that one, maybe we're dreaming there. I prefer not to look at the standings because I want to focus on my game, to be focused on my game, or I can be thinking about whether this one will play, whether that one will score or lose or win. We are the most important, how we are, and from there, I don't care about the rest."
With only six matches remaining, Antequera CF is concentrating on each game, aiming to secure the necessary points to maintain their position in the league and avoid relegation. A strong work ethic and attention to small details are the keys that the team and its experienced defender, Raúl Albentosa, consider vital to overcome this challenge.
