Reinaldo Rueda surprised with the call of Leandro Benegas. Although his first option was Cristian Palacios, from Unión Española, the forward did not have an international passport, so the chosen one was finally a nationalized Argentine who plays in Palestine.
The Arabs were concentrated to face Unión La Calera, with Benegas included, when the coach called Ivo Basay, DT of the tricolor box, who had no problems releasing his scorer, according to the Colombian.
Therefore, he took advantage of this afternoon’s conference to thank Basay for his willingness, to whom he paid numerous compliments.
“The Leandro thing, well, we had the casualties of Juan Carlos Gaete and Diego Valdés, two offensive men and that is why I made the decision to summon Leandro, to see him work and have him closer. I take this opportunity to exalt and acknowledge a man who, like Alexis Sánchez, has a shirt impregnated with his skin, which is Professor Ivo Basay, who yesterday showed that he is a pro-Selection man, a man of integrity, who having his player concentrated and on my way to Concón to play against La Calera, I called him and he told me that the National Team is the first thing, take him away, ”he said.
“So I want to acknowledge him. My gratitude, my respect and my admiration to Professor Ivo Basay for that act of professionalism in yielding to Leandro. Yesterday the teacher had a bad afternoon (Palestino lost 2-0 and suffered two expulsions) but God will make up for it at some point, ”he assured.
