The Stability Of Players' Performances Is An Obstacle Amid A Short Recovery Time, Robert Alberts: The Risks That Must Be Faced

JAKARTA - Persib Bandung coach Robert Rene Alberts began to focus on maintaining stability throughout the match in the three matches that the Blue Prince still had to play in the BRI Liga 1 2021/2022.

Robert admitted that the stability of the appearance was indeed an obstacle in the midst of a fairly short recovery time for players.

"So far in the match, you can see the players are so tired, especially our playing style which always plays aggressively when starting the match," said Robert, quoted from Antara, Friday.

He gave an example of some of the obstacles faced by many teams at the moment is conceding in the last minute, including Persib against Madura United.

"That is a risk that must be faced. Because players are starting to get tired with a short game break," said the Dutch coach.

Persib, who is also nicknamed Maung Bandung, always tries to dominate at the beginning of the match to be able to score fast goals.

This strategy has been successfully implemented by Persib, even though it has an impact on the players' fitness to drain faster.

"We are one of the teams that score a lot of goals quickly. But this way of playing requires a lot of energy from the players even though we have been successful in that way," said Robert.

Robert also tries to maximize the break time for each game to recover the condition of his players and fortunately there is more time for his players to recover before the match against Persebaya Surabaya, Saturday tomorrow.

"So we have to make sure the players do the 'recovery' correctly in order to appear stable for 90 minutes," hoped Robert.

After fighting Persebaya, Persib still has two matches left, namely against Persik Kediri and Barito Putera.
