When he was appointed to Juan Reynoso as the coach of Blue Cross for this tournament many doubts arose: pragmatic technician, defensive, of small equipment, and even with “little press”, they were part of the arguments that used the detractors to be against to the desginación of the Peruvian strategist. Three months later, there is no rational being to criticize him.
And it is that the work of the South American is bearing fruit sooner than expected. The Blue Cross has become an insurmountable team thanks to the defensive discipline imposed by Reynoso. The Cementers are the least beaten team of all guardians (5), and is due, in part, to the ” puzzle ‘of the Peruvian that has been deciphered by only four teams throughout the semester.
After the two defeats at the start of the MX League, And who put his stay at the club in check, Reynoso used the same weapons he used as a player to create a wall around Jesus Crown: security, confidence and discipline. In addition, the team has been able to respond to the orders of the coach, and the data reflect this: of the 10 days played so far, Blue Cross has played with up to eight different defensive lineups.
Joaquín Martínez, Julio Domínguez, Joan Escobar and Adrián Aldrete have been the most used members of defensive training this semester (3). It was on days 4, 5 and 6; in the rest of the commitments, Reynoso has introduced some variant for injury, suspension or its rotation system with results equal to or better than the previous ones.
Santos Laguna, Puebla, Querétaro and Toluca they have been the only teams able to score a goal this semester at La Màquina Cementera. To find something similar in those of the Sínia it is necessary to go back to the year 2018, in the opening of that year. At that time the tenant of the sidewalk was the Portuguese Pedro Caixinha, Who also managed to create a defensive zone capable of withstanding any attack.
These numbers have only excited a fan who thought he was lost after the beating suffered the previous semester, however, the arrival of Reynoso and his great tactical work in the team, they have returned hopes to a team that aspires to break the 23-year-old curse without securing the League title, and that has the base and greatest strength in the defensive zone.
