River brought a smile from his visit to San Nicolás. They beat Universidad Católica de Chile 1-0 with a correct first half and a burst in the second half (nice goal from Barco for the victory) and were recharged with some good feelings for what is to come, which will be transcendental with superclásico in La Bonbonera included, and especially after a turbulent week. After the meeting, Martín Demicheils spoke.
With a smile and a firm posture, the coach first analyzed the game and was satisfied with what River had done: “It wasn’t a friendly one for us. We talked about it with the players, it was good for us to return to basic and simple things that we had had in our first months. We needed to bounce back and we did well today. It was a serious game against a team that dared to play us. I was able to give minutes to kids who were very behind.“He expanded in dialogue with ESPN.
“You saw a River that was very dominant and that made us different. We had injuries, additions… there were modifications but we never moved from our goal. We are not going to change our way of working with seriousness and discipline, we live together within a harmony that makes us strong“He added, entering the field of the supposed problems that exist with the players and a certain wear and tear that existed with them in recent days.
What did Demichelis say about the relationship with the players?
The DT’s specific response regarding the behind-the-scenes situation was focused on the team’s leaders: “I don’t know where the bullets come from because I don’t listen, read or look. I am proud to be River’s coach. I demand from the players and they respond because they are very competitive.”
“The numbers reflect what I tell you. I don’t have the big guys to drive to a locker room, I have them to play, to be competitive. What’s more, I’ll tell you something. We did a football tennis match during the week and the champions were Jony Maidana, Enzo Pérez. From there on down they show the way“He added as intimacy of the week.
