Football isn't divided into individual pieces. It's a collection of details: when we win, the details are favorable to us. In defeats, it's the opposite. The fact is that the team has been performing, except in... game against FigueirenseJust like before. Even in the statistics, we continue to have absolute supremacy when we lose matches.
Guerrero
- He fights and gets hit a lot. I see few players get hit so much. How many balls did he win to get us into the opponent's half? He dominated and made the team play. It's natural that in this kind of combat, he's aggressive. And commits fouls. And I think it's natural for a player who hasn't been marking to have this anxiety. He'll overcome it, he's an internationally recognized player.
