Back to reality.
After the break for the 2023 Pan American Games, national football once again takes over the information agenda with vital matches in the Official Primera A Tournament.
One of them is the one that Ñublense will hold with Palestino, next Saturday, at 9 p.m. at the Nelson Oyarzún stadium.
This is what the Red Devils coach, Hernán Caputto, assumes, who is betting on winning to continue with the dream of getting Red into the Copa Sudamericana.
Palestine stamp
“They play with three up top, Carrasco, Salas and Benítez or they put Abrigo in as a playmaker. “Vitamin” Sánchez occupies a 4-3-3, he is in advanced positions, he has won at home, he has a good performance, they are very good games at home. We want to be protagonists in our stadium and take over the game,” emphasizes Capputto, who believes that the specter of relegation was left behind after Magallanes’ defeat against Colo Colo and now they will fight to get into the Sudamericana.
“We have eleven points above the bottom, our mind is set on winning, not speculating and in these four games we will go looking for the three points to be at the top of the table. Although our initial goal was to maintain the category, we have to try to put ourselves in international cups.” He added that his team must neutralize Palestino’s offensive timing and take advantage of the spaces to “attack from the wings. He valued the return of full-back Jovany Campusano and the recovery of Manuel Rivera, but confirmed that central defender Enzo Guerrrero will not play due to injury.
Cistern case
Regarding the midfielder Rodrigo Cisterna, who was arrested and formalized in Iquique, after carrying a bullet at the Iquique Airport, he said that “he is a player we have, his case was addressed by the manager, it should serve as experience, but we have everyone to be able to choose. I try to ensure that things outside of football do not affect the player.”
