TO Edward Coudet He likes to live matches with maximum intensity, accumulating kilometers inside the technical area, but in the season and a half he has been at Celta he has never been seen as angry as yesterday against Levante. The Chacho he lost his temper and it wasn’t because of a referee’s decision or because of an incident with a rival, but because of the performance of one of his pupils. On the day of his debut, Orbelin Pineda he angered the Argentine coach.
A month and a half after landing in the Rias Baixas as the only celestial signing in the winter market, the Mexican international enjoyed his first minutes. Coudet gave him the alternative at game time and placed him on the left wing. The ‘Magic’ he was not successful with the ball, chaining losses in his first interventions, and had three scoring chances that he did not take advantage of, one of them a one-on-one with the goalkeeper Dani Cardenas. However, what he got out of Chacho’s box was the tactical anarchy of the ex of Blue Cross.
The sky-blue coach explained in the press conference after the duel why he was screaming from the bench making a fuss directed at Orbelin: “He carried the ball and many times he ended up with a cross… and with the advantage we needed to maintain order”. The tendency of the Mexican to leave the band and place himself in central positions unhinged Coudet, who after revealing the reason for his anger tried to play down the matter: “These are the first minutes that touch him and the energy of wanting to show a lot of things… but obviously from my side as coach I try to maintain order, above all, with the score in front”.
“It’s a big step in my career”
The ‘Maguito’ did not have his dream debut in European football. Celta drew with the bottom team and his first appearance as a Celtic will be remembered both for the occasion he failed in the 87th minute and for the anger he received from his coach. Nevertheless, the attacker positively valued his debut in The league: “I am very happy, excited. It is a big step in my career. To continue preparing myself and giving the best of Orbelín”.
“It was an interesting game, very close. Both teams needed to win, but unfortunately it was tied, “he said in statements to Celta’s press department, admitting that”nerves enter the field, but I have to get used to it and give my best to help my colleagues and the institution. I had a clear one and unfortunately I couldn’t make it happen”.
