The technician of Abel Ferreira, commented on the partnership between Flaco López and Vitor Roque, holders and highlights of the team in the 4-0 defeat on the universitario, for the round of 16 of the Copa Libertadores.
Satisfied with the team’s performance, especially the offensive industry, the coach stated that his role is to understand the dynamics presented by the team on the pitch and adjust the tactical scheme according to the clashes.
– They (Vitor Roque and Flaco López) have played a few times together this year, not at first. I think at first it is the first time, but I’m not sure. As I said, my job is exactly this: to realize the dynamics of our team and look for the best solutions for each game. It is good to know that they understand themselves well and can help us when necessary. I don’t believe in magic formulas. I believe the process of training and evolution of a team is continuous. But it is a solution we have. As I said, it was good to see them both in front, forming a pair-he said.
Following, Abel stressed the difficulties overcome by the cast Alviverde in Lima, who faced the rival stadium crowded last night (14). After results below expected in 2024, the group underwent profound reformulation, led by the coach alongside director Anderson Barros and President Leila Pereira.
“So we weren’t waiting for many difficulties today.” The truth is that in some games things can go wrong: to annul us a goal in an eliminatory game, when there is doubt about the VAR line, or to get a player less early on, which conditions us.
– I think it’s okay. We had opportunities: we got the penalty, then we created another chance, and now we look for more, because we have a lot of work ahead. This is a team that, this year, lost 18 players and received 15, some from the base and other hires; Therefore, the work we have is immense. Now is to consistency to this, knowing that we will have ups and downs. Today was a perfect game on our part, but still missing the match in our home, against the university – added.
