An appointment with history for UD Almería Women
The Rojiblancas are to face the first Queen's Cup qualifying round ever against well-known rivals FF LA Solana at the Emilio Campra youth stadium (KO 8pm local time)
UD Almería Women are extremely excited about competing in the La Copa de la Reina (Queen's Cup) tournament for the first time ever in their history. This Wednesday, the Rojiblancas outfit will face the first knockout round against FF La Solana at the Emilio Campra Youth Stadium (kick-off 8pm Spanish Time).
It is such a coincidence that UD Almería will have to go all out to progress to the next round against well-known rivals, since they were fighting FF La Solana last season until the last Matchday to avoid relegation. As a result, the Indálicas have a greater motivation for this appointment with history.
UD Almería Women are now focused on this tournament, with very clear ideas. Priscila, Andrea Tejedor and Mireia have shared their impressions ahead of this historic event in the UDA Radio studio and have assured to feel highly motivated and thrilled.
'We feel gutted about last season and we seek revenge. We're very excited because we've been working for this for a long time. We're going to give it our all on the pitch,' stated Mireia.
'We feel excited and nervous at the same time,' and highlighted 'a year ago, I was watching the Queen's Cup final as a spectator and 'now, I'm going to play a qualifying round,' explained Andrea Tejedor.
Last but not least, Priscila stressed: 'If we continue taking small steps like this, we'll face the biggest ones.'
The three players sent a message to their fans. 'We'll be waiting for everyone on the pitch, last year was a tough season and we want revenge,' underlined Mireia.
Then, Andrea Tejedor added: 'I second that. We're going to be at our best, you can't miss this great game.'
'I just can't wait for it, I hope to see many people there supporting us. Let's go Almería!,' Priscila exclaimed.
