It wasn’t as expected. The Peruvian team They faced their first friendly of the year and didn’t have a good time against Germany. To the surprise of many Juan Reinoso opted for an innovative formation with a row of three and the European team decided the game in the first half. Given what had happened, most of the questions put to the “Cabezón” at a press conference revolved around his approach.
In this regard, the Blanquirroja strategist was clear when he mentioned that the idea will take shape with work; Likewise, he thought it better that this should be done now.
“It takes work, sometimes the key is that the lanes know how to interpret when to press and close. I’m sure it will be interpreted better with the output and the hours worked. Today we played with a team that was clear, we knew that they play a lot off the ball and it cost us that tension to go in with them when the ball went into the penalty area (…) It’s good that it happened, against a competitor in South America we won’t have it,” he said.
Regarding the change in the system he used in the addition – four defenders – the former Universitario coach highlighted the improvement presented by his players, noting that this was mainly due to possession.
“Regardless of whether it’s a four or five line, we liked the idea better when we had the ball. In contrast, at five you would think it would defend itself better. We did better with four because maybe we had different possession than we did, it happened with the line of five,” explained.
