athletics tournament
The team "went into the mouth of the tiger" as he went to the volcano, losing 2-1 to the team of Reggio Montano, and Miguel Herrera's pupils played so well that it made the strategist André Jardim compare them to a big man from the South.
He said at the end of the game, "It's hard enough to play against Tigers University at home, he's the strongest team in the world, I compare him to Flamengo in Brazil, imagine playing one less game at home. I regret even more that the tying goal was a counterattack, that's why I'm frustrated." .
Jardine also admitted to being frustrated with the result as he saw his team do well on the Volcano pitch.
"It was a good game, we spread the control of the game amongst ourselves in the 11 times we played and that's what I like to watch because I like to watch athletes with character and perseverance and I watched 60-70 minutes of the game. I was frustrated and I said in the locker room that the feeling after the game was disappointment with the result. Yes, but I was proud of what I saw on the field."
In addition, the Brazilian strategist said that he is not satisfied with the work of the defense and that they need to improve in their next match at San Luis Athletic.
"Not happy with the defensive system, not happy with the centers, the centers were strong and they found a way to do it, that's an area we've got to improve on, and there's a player that's missing, and I'd like to see my team have the ability to step up to the plate, and I think the next time around they're going to see a team that's got the strengths and the ability to step up to the plate."
