The big day has arrived. Ñublense will have its “Red Night”, today starting at 6:30 p.m. with the presentation of the 2024 squad that will try to get the Chilanejo team into international competitions and at 8 p.m. the friendly once morest Deportes Temuco will be played, where Salas will test the formula with which will start in the National Championship.
The “Rojo” will debut in the tournament in the event of a possible withdrawal of the strike of footballers in the Council of Presidents of the ANFP this Wednesday, on Friday at 9:30 p.m. where they will face Coquimbo Unidos in the “Caldera Diabla”.
In the press conference held in recent days, coach Mario Salas clarified certain tactical doubts by declaring that being in charge of the “Rojo”, Rafael Caroca will continue to be an option in the center line and not in the midfield as Hernán Caputto used him. during his brief stay in Ñublense.
In addition, he confessed that Emanuel Herrera, despite not having played much football in recent months, is in good physical condition and is expected to add minutes today.
“For me Caroca is still a central defender, he will play with me there. Emanuel arrived physically well, the truth is that he has surprised us, although he comes with a football deficit, because in recent weeks or months he has not had a game, but physically he is very good, this leads us to think that he can have some minutes and that is what we want in the duel once morest Temuco,” Salas declared.
Furthermore, the coach did not close himself to the idea of playing with two forwards and not with three as he has traditionally done in his career and where Rubio and Herrera himself would have an advantage to be the starters, although Sosa is not far behind, which comes from having good games with the “Red”.
The “Commander” stated that the team is not closed and that he expects the arrival of 2 to 3 more reinforcements before the closing of the transfer book, which is once the fourth date of the tournament is over.
“We are thinking regarding one more defender and we are thinking regarding another position with offensive functions, there should be 2 or 3 players who would come, we believe that in defense we are balanced, but we are seeing who we add, also in our system we believe that being able to play with two forwards,” he added.
