The instability in the lineup caused that Víctor Manuel Vucetich will use 21 different players to get the victory against León
Víctor Manuel Vucetich took five days and needed 21 players to add his first victory with Chivas, in the Guard1anes 2021. King Midas changed Ramat’s lineup every game, until he found the formula for success.
The coach has tried anyway, goes to Alexis Vega, put Oribe Peralta to play, turned to César Horta, placed Alan Torres. He moved everything, until he found an eleven starter that gave him his first victory in the Guard1anes 2021, on day 5 and against the current champion, the Lion.
Of the 26-player squad that Chivas has registered for Guard1anes 2021, only goalkeepers Antonio Rodríguez and Miguel Jiménez, as well as Ronaldo Cisneros, Luis Olivas and José Madueña have had no activity.
Against León, Raúl Gudiño, the only Chivas player to have played every minute of the Guard1anes 2021, was key to the victory, as two of his cuts prevented the reaction of the green bellies, who boasted a undefeated in 31 regular season games without falling at home.
The other problem Vucetich has is defining his lead. Of the six strikers he has registered in the MX League, the one who has played the most is Alexis Vega, who went to the bench against León, and the most prominent is José Juan Macías, who returned after suffering Covid 19 and has three consecutive games scoring goal, one of them against the current champion.
In defense, Guillermo Sepúlveda and Hiram Mier appear as the players with more minutes, but against León Tiba stayed on the bench and Antonio Briseño took his place. Hiram Mier turned in a dismal performance, however.
King Midas warns that changes to Chivas ’starting eleven will continue and after using 21 of 26 players he has registered, he begins to define which ones should initiate each commitment.
