THE COIT CONFERENCE:
Next match: “What we’re aiming for is the same thing we’ve come to do in Belarus, to take advantage of the FIFA date, to be with the large number of footballers we haven’t been in for a long time, with the aim of trying to get a good result and prepare things. The two rivals are in the middle of the World Cup qualifiers and of course they have good potential. Let’s imagine that the priority and the goals are set in the playoffs, we are competing against rivals who are already ready for the playoffs. so it’s a nice opposition and a good way to measure ourselves, Greece is no exception, it had a good result yesterday, we will surely find other footballers of those who played against Spain “.
Injured players: “Some have been a bit hit, the case of Jonathan Rubio who has been dragging an ankle issue and we’ll see if he arrives for Sunday’s game, also Luis López who comes from Honduras with a shoulder discomfort.”
Difference between Belarus and Greece: “I think they are two very different teams, Belarus is a very physical team and a very large port in its players, football quite vertical, according to what we had seen, especially its right sector, where it kept the footballers who usually play and try to progress on this side to define, tried and sought, Greece has another style of play, led by a Dutch coach, more combinatorial, much more association, with three very well defined lines of defense, 3 midfielders and three strikers, and I repeat, beyond the players who will join the team will try to do this, yesterday they got a great result against Spain but were dominated, surely at home try something else , push higher, dominate the ball more, have more ball possession and field dominance “.
About Jerry Bengtson’s game against Belarus: “Scorers often evaluate them according to the goals, could not convert, the pace beyond the players playing, is an intense pace, very high, but it was in line with what we imagined in terms of their movements, is a player who moves very well and tries to attack the spaces, we did not send the ball to him suddenly and more continuously and more repeatedly, we often evaluate them in terms of the goals they convert, in this case not it happened but that’s not why I think he had a bad game, in return, it’s very good to have him in these games to know what kind of strikers we have when we consider Jerry in the team and from the point of view human, he is a great, professional footballer and he has very clear goals so the impression has been very good “.
Player rotation: “We’re going to put together a strategy with things in mind that we can have in the future, I’m not going to rotate just by rotating and putting all the players in, but we’re going to adjust to a game idea or a game intention and take it forward with some footballers, there will be others on the bench who will give you legs, fresh air for the team because beyond Greece played a great game, we made a very long trip, 24 hours later we were competing in front of Belarus, then we traveled to Greece and recently we are just recovering beyond the excellent conditions in which we were able to make this trip in terms of quality of flights, breaks and hotel. “
The game of Kevin Alvarez, Diego Rodriguez and Deybi Flowers: “These are three different cases. Diego is a footballer who has played for the first time in the national team and who has not been around for a long time, although we watched him at the Real de Mines, we did not imagine that he could reach this tour Europe and play, he did very well, he felt supported by the team, he had an idea of what he did, he tried at all times, he had a high share of nerves of course, but I was very happy with the Kevin is a player who is in Europe, today he is having continuity in his team, which gives him a lot of confidence, he is an important player in the group, he has history with several teammates through youth teams. a great moment, he ratified it in the selection, it makes me very happy that it counts on soccer players who at local level are having a great yield and they confirm it at international level, tomorrow will be a very demanding party for him, I hope has a great match “.
He wants Moya to change clubs: “Bryan Moya is in a very dynamic and intense football but perhaps messy as is African football, but he is playing, competing and making good presentations that hopefully, supported by his participation in the selection, will allow him to half a year go to a league where we have more information and close to our country and we can have fewer hours of wear and tear. I see it very well. “
About Benguché descent: “We were talking to Jorge Benguché for a while, he knows that very soon he started his participation in a competitive league like the Portuguese league, then, at the same time that he was adapting, he started competing and he had to show, he is now going through a period of adaptation, he is happy and excited, wanting to continue in Europe.I saw him very well in spirit, footballing obviously that his little competition makes him lose pace, beyond participating and training with a European team it’s very good, when he has more minutes he went back to before. “
