The fury of Miguel Pinto: the reflection of a disconnected dressing room

Without clarity of play and with an obvious physical problem, Colo Colo added another defeat at the Monumental. Gualberto Jara’s squad showed its worst face against O’Higgins. Not only because he was far from scoring a goal, also because it exposed a total disconnect between the players. Arguments, shouting and aggressiveness out of the ordinary were part of an almost unusual sight.

Miguel Pinto’s furious reaction to O’Higgins’ goal was evident, as Ramón Fernández had no Colo Colo player nearby when he received the center. Ronald de la Fuente’s failed mark on Facundo Castro also bothered. To such an extent that the cry of Pinto was heard throughout the Monumental, even more than the festivities. The archer looked at his teammates and then took a bottle. He hydrated, but within seconds he threw the object to the ground. With anger.

Pinto played his first (official) game in Colo Colo, and had the blessing of Brayan Cortés himself. The two archers embraced in the middle of the warm-up. But the former University of Chile had a bad time. As bad as Pablo Mouche, who made gestures of disappointment at various points in the game. The greatest tension was experienced with Javier Parraguez in the complement. The latter gave a qualification, but the Argentine did not even run. The ball was going very far. They both looked at each other and challenged each other.

The first stage left similar moments, with Gabriel Costa as the protagonist. Around the 12th minute, the former Sporting Cristal launched a cross that O’Higgins cleared. This time the one who got upset was Nicolás Blandi, who was waiting for the ball in the center of the area. He yelled at him and made disapproving gestures. Costa, who also suffered a challenge from Óscar Opazo, did not enter the second half. Blandi, meanwhile, came out replaced in the complement and passed by the side of Gualberto Jara without looking. The coach had turned his head towards him.

The deconcentration of Colo Colo was also evidenced by aggressiveness. Five footballers received a yellow card for committing heavy infractions against rivals. There were even others who were warned by Christian Rojas, the referee of a match that had the worst Colo Colo. That white box that no longer only has settlement problems in attack and “Child mistakes” in defense, is now one that also uncovers his lack of communication.
