O Strength is deleted from liberatorsIt is Lucas Crispin left disappointed with the defeat to the Cerro Porteño. Right after the negative result last Thursday, 17th, in Paraguay, the Leão de Pici player commented that the moment is to “cool down” and think about the decision that the team of Vojvoda will have ahead in Ceará Championship.
It should be noted that Fortaleza has not won in the season for four matches. The team won for the last time on March 2, in the 4-0 defeat of Deportivo Maldonado, in a clash in the second phase of the Libertadores of America. Since then, Leão de Pici has lost to Ceará, and twice to Cerro Porteño, in addition to a draw against Ferroviário. With that, Lucas Crispim sent a message regarding the fall in the main competition of the season.
We had a lot of chance, we didn’t take advantage of it, that complicates it a bit. Even more taking that first goal the way it happened. Now it’s time to cool off because we have a semifinal, Sunday, at Castelão”he stated.
Even with the defeat, Fortaleza secured a place in the Copa Sudamericana, and Lucas Crispim made it clear that the competition will continue with the same importance given to the Libertadores of America: “Now we have a South American ahead of us. Let’s fight for the South American. We are going as far as possible so that we can achieve great things in this championship“.
What did Vojvoda say about the elimination in Libertadores?
Right now I’m upset, I’m in pain, because I wanted to continue and we did a good job to continue in the Copa Libertadores. The opponent demanded it from us, but we also lived up to it. Fortaleza has to keep growing, working”, said the coach.
In addition, Vojvoda showed some annoyance with the chances missed by his squad during the two games against Cerro Porteño: “The truth is that when we have chances to score, we have to convert them. We made mistakes at key moments. The opponent converted. Their goalkeeper had a good performance both in Castelão and tonight. But the team responded, in relation to goal situations, to created chances. We have to improve, be together and believe in our squad“.
