After the initial victory against Deportes Copiapó, in O’Higgins de Rancagua there is good spirit and willingness to go for a new victory next Sunday, this time against Colo-Colo.
The celestials, who this Thursday will complete their third practice ahead of the match, could have one or another variant to measure themselves against the cacique, considering the option of the return of Antonio Díaz to the defensive block or the inclusion from minute 0 of Camilo Moya.
“(Toño) met the date and is available. Navarro spent the entire preseason preparing to fight for a place and finally it was him (the one who played in Copiapó). Healthy competition will allow us kids to perform better. If it is Pedro’s turn to be there, he will do it in the best way, and if it is Toño, he will do it in the best way too,” Juan Manuel Azconzábal pointed out about that consultation.
Now, regarding Sunday’s game, he added that “against this rival we have to have optimal performance. At first glance, Colo-Colo may have individual wealth to resolve the match, but we are going to prepare so that O’Higgins shows strengths and hides weaknesses.”
Likewise, he took as an example what he experienced the previous Saturday and stressed that “we must live with the opponent having possession of the ball and defend ourselves in the best way, we do not have to give space. That was seen in the game against Copiapó.”
Along with this, and when asked about possible wear and tear on the white team due to having to play in the Copa Libertadores this Thursday, he commented that “not on Sunday, there are three days between games, the player is prepared. We will be attentive, because we look at the opponent, we know the individual characteristics, what the coach can preach, but sometimes the player’s imprint makes a difference.”
Finally, the coach expressed that “we have to consolidate O’Higgins, with whatever rivals we have to look for our best and in that way violate the rival.”
In this match, Capo will be able to count on full support from his fans. 10 thousand tickets were put on sale and, until the closing of this edition, gallery 16 was completely sold out. That is, there are tickets left for marquee, andes and Rengo gallery.
