UD Las Palmas coach Luis García believes that not ascending to the First Division should not be labeled a failure, but rather a frustration, and he is focused on victory against Deportivo de La Coruña.

UD Las Palmas is preparing for a decisive match against Deportivo de La Coruña at Riazor, where a victory is key to keeping their promotion hopes to the First Division alive. The team approaches the game with confidence and conviction in their abilities, depending on themselves in the final matchday.
Luis García, the yellow team's coach, expressed a different view from Kirian Rodríguez regarding the possibility of not ascending. "There is no failure when there is growth and construction. Many people are working tirelessly," stated the coach, who prefers to speak of "frustration" rather than "failure" if the objective is not met.
The coach thanked the "maximum confidence" received from the presidency and expressed enthusiasm at the prospect of experiencing the playoffs, an experience he knows well. "We have been repeating for some time that we have to be better. Without that, there is nothing," he emphasized, highlighting the need to maintain enthusiasm.
García flatly denied that the team lacked ambition after the previous draw, assuring that the group's "demand" and "enthusiasm" have always been at their peak. He highlighted the fans' support, recalling personal anecdotes that reflect the island's sentiment.
Finally, the Asturian coach emphasized the team's resilience in managing frustration, transforming it into positive energy. "We have to transform it into energy to add to us," he concluded, reaffirming that the main objective is to win to secure promotion.
