He historic former defender of Colo Colo and the Chilean team, Fernando Astengo, referred to the performance of Maximiliano Falcón, whom he cataloged as “extremely discreet”, assuring that “is in debt.”
The former Union Espanola player also criticized the praise that the Uruguayan has received, who has won the hearts of the fans in the few games he has played in Chilean football.
“You play two games in Colo Colo and they want to compare you with Flaco Rojas, Mario Soto, Ronald Fuentes, there are a number of players. I think they laughed at the situation. Placing it on the Colo Colo badge is disrespectful of terror, I mean, when I saw it, I couldn’t believe it. I did not know if it was the Cacique, Valderrama, I did not know who he was, “said Astengo in conversation with Redgol.
He complemented that “I am not going to forgive those comparisons, because if one of the characteristics of Chile in the 1980s was that it had great central defenders. So, play a game or two, get a ball on the line, run around like a mad horse, obviously, that means you are not a good center back ”.
Despite criticizing the defender ‘charrúa’, he acknowledged the deployment he has on the field of play, although he highlighted other characteristics of good central defenders that, for him, Falcón does not have.
“Falcón is a guy who runs, who fights, who throws himself to the ground and that’s it. But a good center-back has to have a very good reading of the game, know when to anticipate or go back, when to project in attack so that there are no spaces behind, there are a number of factors that a good center-back should have ”, he clarified.
Astengo concluded that “Therefore, so far, I did a little follow-up to him after these jokes and, to be honest, I think he is in the right place. Between Juan Manuel Insaurralde and him, I find them extremely discreet ”.
