Granada ready for ‘Contra effect’

Granada Coach Lucas Alcaraz wants his side to be ready for the effect of a new Coach on Getafe, their opponents on Friday.

Former Romania international Cosmin Contra replaced Luis Garcia at Coliseum Alfonso Perez this week and Granada represent El Geta’s first opponents under the former full back.

Alcaraz told his pre-match Press conference that he has warned his players to be wary of the impact of a new Coach on the out-of-form Madrid side.

“We want to propose our own game, to press and dominate,” Alcaraz said.

“I expect the players’ mentality to combat the likely effect of the coaching change.

“Getafe have become an unpredictable team but I want to think about Granada, our performance, the game and how to do things.

“When we look at ourselves we do things right, we tighten and control the game and do everything possible to score.

“Every game is important but when you are able to get points against a direct rival you stop their advance and help yourself.”
