Regarding the changes, the coach explained that “Juan Carlos Díaz is a very important player for us, but he is more of a ‘5’ than ‘8’ midfielder. With the injury of Adrián (Arregui) we resorted to him to use it, but since the game was so fast, we decided to remove Juan Carlos who also already had a yellow card, we decided to change him to give arrival to a man like Jean (Pineda). The other changes were to give rest to players who had a lot of wear and tear like Edwar (López) and Agustín (Vuletich) ”.

Regarding the team’s operation, Gómez pointed out that “there is still room for improvement, there are times when we have a crisis. We have to be honest, work and believe in our idea of ​​the game, it is important to have character to continue fighting, regardless of what is heard externally from the team ”.

In addition, “you have to keep working. The boys are very intelligent, to be an orderly team in attack and defense, they must understand very well what we are reporting. The result of this match was important to show that our work is useful ”.

Regarding this improvement, Hernán Darío stressed that “for several games the team has good moments, we have to look for those moments to be more continuous, we are looking for a better volume of attack with companies that the work looks better.”

Finally, he spoke about the Diber Cambindo – Agustín Vuletich duo on the attack front. “Little by little they understand each other, they are supportive, very friendly and contribute with the goal. Within this we are very happy. In football you always have to be unhappy, that’s why you have to work to improve every day ”.
