The countdown is already underway, ahead of the first leg against Paranaense for Copa Libertadores. There is no longer a commitment to the local tournament in the middle, and on the red-white horizon, the only thing left is to travel to Brazil tomorrow, to go out on the field on Thursday night.
Logically, the expectation is increasing in the world of Students who anxiously await both this first leg game, as well as the second leg that will be played at the Stadium of 1 and 55 on Thursday, August 11, that is, next week.
That is why there is no time for regrets or to fall or relax, since this key with Paranaense is shown as the most important, thinking of advancing to the Semifinal of the contest.
and the technician Ricardo Zielinski He has been working with a team in mind, thinking precisely of the cup match in Brazil. Precisely, last Saturday on the occasion of the match against Banfield, the Russian (which received enormous support from the people in the previous round), put eleven names on the field of play obviously looking to beat Drill, but thinking of oiling up the movements to visit Paranaense.
As all the footballers finished the match well, apart from some blows typical of a normal match, all are available to Zielinski to play next Thursday at 21:30.
Initially, the idea of Russian is to repeat the same eleven names that tied with Banfield for the local tournament. The line of five in the background when the team defends, which turns into a line of three when the team attacks, is super confirmed.
The issue is focused on the fact that the team did not leave the best image against Drill where they ended up drawing 0-0. And the question is whether the coach will make a last-minute tactical variation to surprise, or not.
But let’s go with the equipment that he has been using and is the one that closes the DT the most, with: Mariano Andujar; Leonardo Godoy, Agustín Rogel, Jorge Morel, Luciano Lollo and Emmanuel Mas; Manuel Castro, Fernando Zuqui, Jorge Rodríguez and Pablo Piatti; Leandro Diaz.
Afterwards, the layout on the field of play may change. For the coaching staff, the tactical drawing resembles a 3-4-3, with the defense made up of a line of three with Rogel, Morel y Lol; Already in the middle of the field Godoy in the right lane and But on the left next to Zuqui and the cork rodriguez through the middle; and up the Uruguayan Castro on the right, the Crazy Diaz through the center and Dishes by the left sector of the attack.
What was also made clear by last Saturday’s game against Drill, which has variants that can be entered at any time by one of the starters.
For example, they booted the plugin by playing Franco Zapiola (by Lol) y Mauro Mendez (by Dishes). That is to say, there are offensive variants if the idea is to change in the middle of the game, either in terms of names or tactical drawing. To this can be added that they entered minutes after Benjamin Rollheiser (by Castro) y Brian Orosco (by Zuqui).
In short, for these hours Zielinski He ponders what to do, beyond the idea of repeating the aforementioned training in his mind. In the practice that he develops in the present day he will end up defining it together with his collaborators.
TOMORROW TRIP TO BRAZIL AND PRACTICE IN CURITIBA
Regarding what will happen today, the red-and-white professional team will train again in the morning at the Country Club, and it will be the last activity before embarking on the trip to Brazil. there the Russian Zielinski He will leave the team defined after playing football for a while.
It is that tomorrow at 10, the delegation will take a plane to Aeroparque, to then carry out a practice in the afternoon in the city of Curitiba, where they will review the set pieces thinking about the rival.
