Mario Salas’ Wednesdays in Paso Alejo became Christián Guzmán’s Wednesdays.
Because the “Comandante” was sent off in the duel once morest Everton in Viña del Mar, this time it was his technical assistant who spoke out to analyze the team’s start in the first five games.
And one of the issues that he discussed, assuming that it had an impact on performance, was the expulsions.
On five dates, the team has had to hold the second half with one less man due to the expulsions of Patricio Rubio (Copiapó) and Bernardo Cerezo (Everton).
“In relation to the expulsions, obviously, it is something that concerns us and concerns us in order to be able to solve it. Although they have been due to game situations and not due to non-football things, it still worries us a little and we want them to not happen once more, because they have generated tremendous wear and tear and have had a direct impact on our performance. In two games in a row, playing two full halves with 10 players undoubtedly affects any system and any idea, so it is something we are working on,” analyzed Guzmán, who believes that the team has improved.
“Normally the performances of Chilean teams are progressive. From what we have seen, no team has achieved full performance and we do not deviate from that observation. I believe that we have achieved a progression of the football principles that we have sought as an idea of the game, according to the imprint of the collective game. For example, possession of the ball with purpose that allows us to reach the opponent’s goal. We are getting closer to the rival goal, but we have not yet achieved that ideal that we are looking for, but an idea closer to what we are looking for has been given. Finally, when asked regarding the defensive errors evidenced in the duel with Everton, he stressed that they focus the correction “looking more at the collective, from the origin, than at the individual, because the entire team attacks and defends.”
