The Chilean National Team worsened its sporting crisis after the harsh defeat it received at the hands of the Colombian National Team, a result that left those led by Ricardo Gareca in last place in the South American Qualifiers.
Although “El Tigre” is going through a very complex scenario under the command of La Roja, everything seems to indicate that It will continue its process until the commitment to Venezuela.
One of the great critics of the stay of the experienced Argentine technical director in the Team of All has been nothing more and nothing less than Arturo Vidal, two-time champion of America.
Jorge Luis Pinto sends a clear message to Arturo Vidal
The experienced Colombian technician Jorge Luis Pintowith steps in the Tricolor, in Honduras and Costa Rica, spoke with La Tercera and criticized the way of acting of the current Colo Colo midfielder.
“Vidal’s comments only hurt Chile; He is no longer able to play for the national team. These criticisms destroy tranquility. With that, Chile does not feel that peace of mind that it deserves or needs to build a new team and compete,” the current coach of Unión Magdalena of Colombia’s Second Division began by saying.
Along the same lines, Pinto added that “there is a new generation and that costs. It has happened to all teams. It happened to Colombia, to Peru, to Ecuador… The contribution of this new generation is not seen… Sometimes, these guys do it better outside their country. Chile has its essence, we have to look at how the game proposes and those who come respond without fear, nervousness, or insecurity. The time has come to be calm”
“Some players are not involved with the work of Ricardo Gareca, led by Arturo Vidal. It occurs in all generations. I lived in the Colombia team, when you want to change and remove those who have already had their time. Vidal is an extraordinary player, a great athlete, but from years gone by. Today, Vidal is not for the Chilean team,” he concluded.
When will La Roja’s next game be in the South American Qualifiers?
La Roja will have to turn the page and will have to focus on what will be the match against the Peruvian National Team, which will be played on November 15.
