As for the opponent, who will make his historic debut with the Libertadores against the Albos, the coach warned that “you have to be careful, the Colombian players are very technical, fast and strong. We have to work so that they don’t surprise us.”

This is a unique opportunity for everyone and we want to take advantage of it”.
“Three points at home will help us a lot in qualifying, it’s not that it’s a direct rival but that each of the group’s rivals, as long as we’re level on points, we’ll be direct”, a- he added.
Similarly, Restrepo praises Quinteros “I see a coach with experience, who has managed national teams, with a long history in South American football and who has already played this type of championship.”
