**Headline: Atlas Coach Cocca Stresses ‘Process’ Amidst Winless Streak**

**Guadalajara, Mexico** – Atlas FC’s struggles continue, extending their winless streak to nine matches across Liga MX and Leagues Cup competitions. As the team prepares to face Santos Laguna at Estadio Jalisco, head coach Diego Cocca addressed concerns about the team’s performance, emphasizing the importance of patience and the ongoing process of improvement.

“I understand the people and the press asking what to do immediately to make the process work,” Cocca stated during a press conference. “The process is time, patience, and improving. I cannot guarantee Saturday’s result, but I can guarantee that my players trust the process. If we give our all and put our talent at the service of the team, the results will come.”

Cocca identified the team’s mental state as a significant contributor to their current crisis. Since returning to the club, Cocca has overseen three matches, all of which saw positive results slip away in the final minutes. He acknowledged the team’s recent history of poor results and failure to qualify for the Liguilla (playoffs) has created doubt within the squad.

“The team is not doing well mentally. There have been several tournaments without qualifying and with bad results. We are looking to correct that. My responsibility is to work on the team and each player in all concepts,” Cocca explained. “Today the reality is that the team comes from many negative results and not qualifying for Liguilla, that marks doubts. We must not be pained to recognize it, it is the truth. What we seek is to generate an idea of ​​the game that allows the result to be a consequence of what we do.”

Cocca also highlighted the work being done to improve Atlas’s defense, currently the worst in the Apertura 2023. “We are working on a defensive order that allows us to make good decisions when recovering the ball and from there building a more solid game structure. All this requires repeating, correcting, and showing. The players have good predisposition and have made a great physical effort. We are on that path, with great enthusiasm to have a great game on Saturday.”
