Coach Lillo was the latest member of the Real Sociedad camp to face the media today as the build up to Sunday's clash with Tenerife continues. With the club having one of its hardest in modern times with the injury to Díaz de Cerio, the clubs court appearances and the 1,000 Euros fine the club received after a fan hit coach Lillo on the head with a bottle at the end of the Eibar game, people would be forgiven for thinking the Tenerife game was the furthest thing from the players minds, however as Lillo explained, this couldn't be further from reality. He said if the club wanted to be spoken about in a football context rather than in a negative light, the best way is to win! He went on to say Real Sociedad need to be pushing the top of the league and a victory would see them go above Tenerife. Also, Lillo recognizes that there is a double motive to fight for the three points. "If there is a party that want to win, its us", in a clear reference to the team wanting to win and dedicate the victory to stricken star Díaz De Cerio.
