Colo Colo needed to add his first victory in the Copa Libertadores this Tuesday to continue fighting for the crosswalk to the end of the competition. However, The chief ended up paying his mistakes And he retired thrashed from Brazil after falling 4-0 against Fortaleza.
Once the match was over the players tried to find the explanation to what happened. Esteban PavezCaptain of the Albos, pointed to coach Jorge Almirón.
“Today the scheme was not well and you have to ask the teacher”, He said after the match. At the same time, he evidenced that the win also affected the DT.“ It is very hurt with what is happening, as we are all. We had three errors in the first half and we all paid expensive. ”
“It was a very painful defeat, a shame what happened today (last night)but we know that many games remain and we have to turn what is happening, ”he said later.
With the fall, Colo Colo remained in the last position of Group E with two points and was three units of Atlético Bucaramanga, which so far is occupying the position to continue in the South American Cup, competition that already begins to be around the head of the soccer players.
“We have to improve and start winning. We know that classifying the second phase of the Copa Libertadores no longer depends on us and We also know that the most realistic is fighting for the South American Cup”He said.
-“In football not all moments can be good and today we are happening. We know that it is a hard, difficult time, you have to put your chest to the bullets. We will fight until the last one,” the captain closed.
Vidal’s self -criticism
Who was also hard in the party analysis was Arturo Vidal. The king launched that “in the first half we gave the three goals. We are wrong many times. We prepare a game and it was not”.
“I think the weather also affected a lot, but it is just the fault of us. We came with an idea and did not do it,” said the steering wheel.
Then, in the mixed area, he deepened in the analysis. “The championship remains, the Chile Cup, we still have chances of fighting here, we have two games to pass in the Libertadores, but to the South American. A team that did so well last year cannot be wrong so much. I apologize to the people, but to which he goes to the stadium, not the one he writes on social networks and criticizes. I promise you that the National Championship will be of us”He said.
He also acknowledged that they are far from the classification and set aside their characteristic optimism. “We were very complicated, the triumph today was important. It no longer depends on us. I have faith when the responsibility belongs to us, now we do not have it. But in football everything occurs. Today it will be a very long night. Now we will think of Limache, we have to classify in the Chile Cup and you have to win the two local tournaments”He emphasized.
The Colo Colo match against the Tomateros is scheduled for this Saturday, May 10 from 3 pm at the Lucio Fariña stadium in Quillota.
