The Cacique midfielder assures that Boca Juniors showed enough experience to win the match, something key in the Copa Libertadores. On the other hand, Ramiro González says he is “angry” for the negative result after being superior at the start of the game.
Colo Colo fell to Boca Juniors. In a match of high intensity, the Cacique succumbed to the trans-Andean team, despite a good start. In this context, Leonardo Gil analyzes his team’s setback. “It was a special match, the most anticipated of this phase. In the first half, we played very well. We had possession and we created clear situations, but Boca has a hierarchy and experience,” he said.
“We pay dearly for devolutions. The phase is not closed, it is the positive. We have to win the games to come, against our direct rivals. We are a growing team,” he adds.
The cacique paid dearly for his mistakes. He had an expulsion and the 2-0 was born from a defeat by Falcón. Have they sinned inexperienced? The Rosario Central alum breaks down this situation. “The hierarchy is given to you by particular situations, we made two mistakes and we paid the price. In this kind of tournaments, experience counts. Boca had two situations in the first half, six of us. If we did two, the party was another. Now we have direct matches left. We will try to pass the phase, ”he said.
About the game that ended with Carlos Palacios away, the midfielder maintains that it wasn’t for a red card. “In impatience to steal the ball, he kicks. The referee says he is reckless and excessive force, but I see he is not going with the iron, but with the instep. These are high adrenaline situations. We are pushing hard,” he said.
In this sense, he adds that the team supports the player. “We have to support Carlos. The championships are carried out by the groups. We must all be together. We have several games ahead of us,” he said.
a blow
On the other hand, Fernando de Paul assures that Colo Colo could not be shaken from 1-0. “We started to play well, but they hit us as hard as we could. It was difficult for us to recover and with one less it became much more difficult. This follows. We have to work. We have a game next week,” he told ESPN.
“It was difficult for us to get the sending-off. They have players who handle the ball well with spaces,” he adds.
Defender Ramiro González agrees the first half was positive for the Albos. “We had a great first half. We had many goal situations that we couldn’t achieve, especially in the first 15 minutes. Then the expulsion made the game difficult for us. We lost against a good rival. Boca has important things and a functioning that they are finding, ”he analyzes in a dialogue with television.
“In the tournament, you have to add three so as not to lose sight of those on top. In the Copa Libertadores, our goal is to reach the round of 16. We must support longer what we did in the start of 45 minutes, ”he breaks down.
Then, in the mixed zone, the Argentinian-Chilean deepened his impression of the shock: “The arbitration did not influence the result. There were details for which we paid dearly. In the expulsion the judge does not even doubt, seeing it from afar, it seems to me that he is exaggerating. There were games that could change the game process. We knew it would be such a game. I’m angry because we were left empty-handed. He also addresses Maximiliano Falcón’s error which resulted in the 2-0. “It’s a shame, these are things that can happen to defenders. Unfortunately, it hit him. We have to support it, we know what it can bring us, ”he underlines.
