About Kendry Paez. He plays under his own power and has done well individually and collectively. We are happy for him. The U-17 World Cup is not a topic of discussion at the moment, we are all focused on the important game against Colombia.
Analysis of the previous game. In the second half against Bolivia we were at odds several times due to the rival’s suggestions. When playing in La Paz it is difficult to stay compact as a team. We needed a break to overcome the pressure in the front row and play more comfortably in the opponent’s field.
About the coffee farmers. Colombia is preparing accordingly to come here, so we expect a rival in full shape. We know they will be very demanding and if we want to keep getting three points we have to play a very good game from the first minute to the last.
Rotation in an arc. Hernán Galíndez performed very well in the first two games. Against Bolivia we relied on Moisés Ramírez because we thought he could help us. We have three great goalkeepers at our disposal and we are very happy with them, they have a very healthy competition between them.
