University of Chile finished in first place in the standings of the National Championshiponce the first round was finished by coach Gustavo Álvarez.
With 32 points, in nine games won, five tied and only one lost, the blues took days off after the 2-1 victory against Everton in Viña del Mar.
Although it was just a week of relaxation to recharge energy, the rowdy team took advantage of enjoying time with their families, knowing that great challenges lie ahead in the second part of the year.
The U players will begin to prepare their participation in the Chile Cup, where on Monday, June 17, they must clash against Municipal Puente Alto, at the National Stadium.
The Caribbean was bustling
Once the duel against Everton ended, with the agonizing victory and goal from Lucas Assadi, the Universidad de Chile players began their days off. It was even striking that several left the Sausalito stadium without the club’s sports clothing.
For others, the suitcases were ready, like for the captain of the U, Marcelo Díaz, who has shown on his social networks his days of rest, relaxation and meditation with reading books, in Cancun.
Another who also decided to leave the cold of Santiago and travel to the heat of Mexico was Leandro Fernández, who, with his wife, Tamara, and his son, Ramiro, also enjoy the beaches.
With postcards in Cancún and Playa del Carmen, one of the protagonists of the leader’s campaign recharges energy, where in the second semester they will have to battle to maintain the lead of the tournament.
Family relaxation at the U
The Caribbean has always been a favorite destination when looking for vacations and relaxation during a very tense season, but others chose family warmth and tranquility.
For example, Matías Zaldivia traveled to Argentina with his wife, where he also had time to play padel with his representative and some friends, which he shared in a photo where he is seen wearing the shirt of the world champion team.
If it’s about breathing, Matías Sepúlveda, one of the revelations in the U’s midfield, traveled to the south of Chile, with the landscape of the lakes and family affection, to fill himself with energy and warmth.
Same situation as other colleagues who chose to stay in the country, such as Marcelo Morales, who, in the middle of his negotiation to renew with the U, remained in Viña del Mar.
Vacations even for the sports director
Gustavo Álvarez also took relaxation days for a few days at the University of Chile, where he has a double task in the coming days, to define reinforcements and departures within his squad.
A situation that must be resolved with the sports director Manuel Mayo, who, as reported by Radio Cooperativa, is enjoying a few days of vacation in Argentina, to begin his work again this week.
Now the blues will leave their vacation behind, because starting this Monday they must appear at the Azul Sports Center to start the work of a season again that they want to finish with a title.
