Universidad de Chile and Hernán Caputto prepare the duel against Deportes La Serena as locals this Sunday for the fourteenth date of the National Tournament. The blues come from falling in the classic against the Catholic and the toe UC takes 10 units away from the blues, now fifth.
“The most important thing since we started the year is to be as high as possible, we are still in the advanced group, but we have to improve aspects of the game. Beyond who we can reach, I think it is a competition with ourselves to improve and be at the high level. There are things that we could not do in the last games and it is clear that they must be improved. That will later tell whether or not we can shorten the distance to the Catholic ”, Caputto said.
On the other hand, I regret the injury to Franco Lobos, who suffered a torn anterior cruciate ligament and joins Pablo Aránguiz among the casualties, with a fracture in the fifth metatarsal of his left foot.
“I’m very sorry about Franco and Pablo, without a doubt. It is something that happens and happens to us in the same position, we have to be able to find solutions with what there is, a limited group, but with a lot of capacity. It’s my job, but we have players for that ”, exposed the coach of the blues.
Add that “They are looking for players, the incorporation window deserves it because in offense we have several casualties for some time, Óscar Ruíz (from Cerro Porteño) is a name that we are looking at as other options. Today what prevails is the game on Sunday ”.
Regarding the next challenge against La Serena, he maintained that despite the two online defeats “The spirit is always at its best, I am always optimistic, imagine the situation that I had to face last year, but I am also self-critical in the sense that we must improve”.
Judgment that you have “Firmness, conviction and humility to receive criticism, that is growth. I understand the fan because I feel similar. When you lose, you want things to go better. We have to be able to win the next game by going forward ”.
