Haro: Is Rubi fighting for his job? No, but when you don't win, everything's in doubt Real Betis vs Real Madrid Betis president didn't want to give ultimatum

Before facing Real Madrid, Real Betis president Angel Haro insisted that head coach Rubi is not fighting for his job, despite the team's poor run of results.

Without a win in seven games in all competitions before facing the LaLiga Santander leaders, Betis are understandably under pressure.

"Is Rubi fighting for his job in the next two games? No, but it's reasonable that when the team doesn't win, everything is put in doubt: the coach, the players, the administrative team," Haro insisted.

"When you don't win, there's disappointment and in that sense we all have to be tense because of the situation the club is in, but we have to be calm too."

Despite that criticism, Haro was also adamant that the situation may not be as bad as it seems.

"The team isn't playing badly, but we need to win and we aren't winning," he explained.

"We have to work with this pressure, it's something added on in the world of football, we have to be concentrated and also take the criticism which is logical from the other side."

Welcoming Florentino Perez and the Real Madrid team to the Estadio Benito Villamarin, Haro was already hoping to pick up some points.

"We come into this game needing points, we need to start to win now because the teams behind us are winning the year is being a bad one," he added.
