Racing is finalizing preparations for the RFEF Footters First Division match that will be played against Bilbao Athletic in Lezama (Saturday 21-20:30) and this morning it completed its third training session of the week at the Santi Gutiérrez Calle field. The Verdiblancos, with promotion to LaLiga SmartBank and first place in Group I of the bronze category secured more than two weeks ago, they want to maintain competitiveness despite having met the objective set for this 2021/22 academic year. Thus, the captain of the first team, Íñigo, said that “it is difficult to keep the virus competitive, but we represent a lot of people and we want to follow the most demanding line of work possible and do what we have done all year”. In fact, the racinguistas beat Real Valladolid B at Los Campos de Sport 1-0 with a goal from Marco Camus in their last official match.
Íñigo also gave a positive assessment of his experience wearing the armband (“the dressing room, which is very human, has helped me a lot in carrying out my work as captain and has made it easy for me”) and revealed the conversation he had with Pablo Torre after the match against Real Valladolid B, his last in front of the racing fans, as he will play next season at Fútbol Club Barcelona: “it was a very emotional day for Pablo, it meant a lot to him, I was excited and we remember the two years we lived together in the locker room. I gave him peace of mind, I told him that you have to enjoy the moments lived. It was a very human conversation.”
Tomorrow, Friday, May 20, the Cantabrian team will exercise again at the Nando Yosu Facilities starting at 10:45 am.
