LOS ANGELES – Don’t seduce. It’s not fun. Not captivating. He is not passionate. But America is there. In this combat zone that demands its lineage to him.
He would be a leader. He would have the Blue Cross in his rearview mirror. But a bureaucratic suicide relegated him. Of all kinds of misfortunes there are in the Vineyards of the Lord, some of these Vineyards, have a name: Federico.
He showed, from his repertoire, perhaps, in the face of the worst: 1 Pachuca evicted. the Tuzos, By DNA, they are experts at digging their own holes, their own graves. The most recent is a case for your coach Paulo Pezzolano, With the skill in tracing measurements, of a Vuitton seamstress.
America deleted to Pachuca. Guillermo Ochoa was dispatched with the most expensive yawns in the world. the Nest he is still partying on the scoreboard, although his fans are mired in drowsiness due to his operation in line with strict pragmatism.
The titles survive the paperwork. The end justifies means and fears. Championships do not become rancid or percussive. Criticism will not rust trophies. Because if so, imagine the collection of the Tuca Ferretti.
Santiago Solari arrived questioned at Coapa. As it should be. He presented a resume as a technician who didn’t need a stapler or a clip. There were only two lines: Real Castilla and Real Madrid. And that of the White House was an adventurous contemplation of Florentino Pérez, After dismissal Julen Lopetegui. True, he was champion of the Club World Cup, but in the locker room was still the aroma of Zinedine Zidane.
today, The Undead has in ‘ America as subleader. There is one merit: he inherited the ruins of the ruined team he handled Miguel Herrera. Dust from other sludges. And yet it climbs to battle places. True: The assigned mission still has dangerous battles left. And the war takes place in a coliseum unknown to the Argentine: the Liguilla.
On the court he has only one defeat, against Ratllats, with the refereeing curse. The other, it has already been said, happened at the gangster table of Mexican football. The forms are not convincing, but the Americanism he is content to see it here, bidding on the lap of his own Everest.
Solar has an advantage. Before being physically and competitively beaten by the LAFC, Miguel Herrera had tied two players for this tournament: Pere Aquino and Mauro Láinez. The two already accommodated their virtues in the starting lineup.
But, Santiago Solari has made drastic decisions. He no longer expects anything from the hopeless Giovani dos Santos and Nico Benedetti, and glances at Roger Martínez, and recruits his own regiment. And for the taste of Americanism, Insists on supporting Santiago Naveda, a solid 19-year-old project.
His chess has no fiction. Press, retrieve, circulate, hold, wait and assault, although sometimes the balls in the net are desperate crafts of talented players. in front Pachuca, Richard Sánchez takes a goal from his childhood fantasies, from midfield, and Not here pepena of head a ball in the area, between the sleeping forest of pachuqueños. However, they are also listed on the stock exchange of the General Table.
In your bag or, if itacate, The Undead only one order was loaded: Álvaro Fidalgo. His most recent experiences were in the banking of him Real Castellón of the Second Division of Spain. Solar has supported it. in front Pachuca, There were those who weighed it. His pass effectiveness was one hundred percent: 43 of 43 delivered correctly. The numbers also tell lies. Maybe a couple of intentional balls, the rest, side deliveries, comfortable, safe, relief.
We compare these figures with those of Richard Sánchez: Out of 61 balls in possession, he delivered 56 correctly. 91.8 percent. Between these balls the pass for the goal of Not here. It was better Fidalgo what Sanchez or the same Not here?
The secret of Solar? The impact on the player and in the locker room. A guy with personality, with the still intriguing remnant of having planted his face in a beastly, rude, relentless dressing room like that of the Real Madrid, Is a powerful business card. And whoever has faced wolves, feels comfortable in front of a toothless, wounded and desperate crowd like the one he found in Coapa, After a disastrous 2020, and on with the abrupt dismissal of Miguel Herrera.
A cultured type, with power in the word, with firmness in concepts, beyond that they generate more yawns than screams between his fanaticada, has allowed him to seize of the scene and to be, in addition, a generous escape valve for players eager for their redemption and others grateful for an opportunity like the cases of Not here i Láinez.
From the inside of the Nest there is a version. Most of the players were dead with Miguel Herrera. And they liked the message, the passion, the intensity, however, the time had come when the motivation came to be done with awkward pressure when going out on the track. They did not stop respecting the Poll, But already his speech was beginning to put extra weight on his back. Solar came to lighten this burden.
The footballer today comes out on the court with less anguish, but with more awareness of his responsibilities. And there are players who have received the message very clearly, especially Young people, Who no longer appears even in the desperate alternatives of his new coach.
In the end, with eight days completed, Santiago Solari carries approving grades. The position at the table is an irrefutable argument. The style of play that reached its highest point, facing the worst benchmark, as it was Pachuca, Opens, however, questionable agreement reach points of greater demand.
Ahead, America will have to cede players to national teams and watch matches of the Concachampions (Olimpia), and the calendar cited him before the most odious and hated synods, some in low hours, to close the management of the regular season: Tijuana, León, Chivas, Tigres, Blue Cross, Toluca and Pumes, with Necaxa and Mazatlán, as apparent oases, although, as we know, the patriarch of the # Hate Me More they play him with different vehemence.
Today, with little time to work, Solari has eclipsed the bad omens that fueled his arrival. But, being the America, The outcome and the final verdict, will receive him to the throne or the gallows. en the Nest there is no room for purgatory.
