The Uruguayan coach assured that despite Scratch’s elimination from the competition, they still had much to improve. “I am not satisfied with having created three goal situations. But in turn, the rival generated two. The offensive generations were weak. “I am much more attracted to attack than to defense,” he said.
Marcelo Bielsa has delivered the big blow in the Copa America. His team beat Brazil 4-2 on penalties and reached the semi-finals of the Copa América. Your next obstacle will be Colombia. However, the coach is not gloomy and assures that they must improve for the next phase. “I am not satisfied with having created three goal situations. But in turn, the rival generated two. The offensive generations were weak. “I am much more attracted to attack than to defense, but I must appreciate that we defended well and created one more option than our rival.” he said at a press conference.
“The match was very close, very contested even, with few changes of dominance. With one man less, we resigned ourselves to defending in our own field, but we did not suffer any goal situations. Keeping the result as the team did today denotes a profile of Uruguayan football. he added.
In any case, the Rosario appreciate the solvency they have shown in defense throughout the continental competition. “Uruguay defends regularly. We have played against rivals like Mexico, the United States or Brazil and we have not conceded a single goal. This is something that must be valued.” said.

Emphasis was also placed on the performance of Darwin Núñez, who was replaced in the last quarter of an hour. The transandine explains that he imagined he had little chance of scoring: “ I thought their two centre-backs were the players we needed to let handle the ball. Darwin had made a very big effort. He had the feeling that the ball was not going to reach him.” Bielsa explained.
On the other hand, the Argentine coach spoke about the injuries suffered in the clash against the Canarinha. “What happened to Matías Viña was not a muscle injury. It was an exhaustion of the back of the thigh. “What happened to Ronald Araujo is a muscle injury that will be resolved once the studies are finished.” made it known.
Finally, the former coach of La Roja anticipated the confrontation against the coffee growers, who beat Panama this Saturday. “Colombia is a team that has evolved a lot match after match,” he said.
