The ‘Maestro’ Tabárez described the result as “historic”It is the first time that La Celeste has prevailed in Barranquilla, after accumulating three defeats and a draw.
“Now we have to win here. I did not think about it before the game and less in this way, which I think was forceful, but it can happen ”, said the eastern coach at the press conference after the match on the third day of the South American qualifiers to Qatar 2022.
For the 73-year-old strategist, “statistics, even if they last a long time, are to be broken and it is always good that that happens because things are to be renewed“. In addition, he valued what he saw as “an important step towards the great goal, which is trying to go to the World Cup in Qatar.”
The key to victory, according to Tabárez, would serve Colombia a lot
According to him, a starting point for the preparation that allowed their leaders to hit the date was the 4-2 defeat last month in Quito, before Ecuador; a game in which his team did not have a good presentation and from which Colombia could learn a lot for what is to come.
“In Ecuador we had a defeat that hurt us a lot and I believe that many of the things that were seen on the court today, beyond the game, this is an internal story, they began after the game we lost to Ecuador,” he said.
Tabárez highlighted today’s victory and said that it is “historic because it had never happened here in Barranquilla”: “When one thinks of a work process that goes, let’s say, favoring the competitiveness of the team, tAll negative statistics that could exist at one time are capable of being changed“, said.
He further admitted that It is always very difficult for his team to play in Barranquilla due to the high temperatures and humidity, which they do not have anywhere in Uruguay, and stated that “the players ended up very tired.”
“We got what we wanted in planning. Nothing changes for us, we are the same ones who lost with Ecuador, “he added, adding that” we have to look ahead and leave this there, quiet, in the historic place it took. “
On the next day, scheduled for Tuesday, Uruguay will host Brazil at the Centenario stadium in Montevideo.
