Gallardo’s statements after River’s draw
“Argentine football is a bit like that, a lot of friction, a lot of physical pairing and obviously you have to be up to the task so that the technical qualities of the players can decide the matches,” said ‘El Muñeco’.
“In the first half we couldn’t connect“Except for two or three moments when we escaped the pressure, we could have finished better, but we did not do it with continuity due to the defensive solidity and aggressiveness of Newell’s, which did very well,” analyzed the coach.
“In the second half we had better chances, we had players in front of goal, in the opponent’s half with better attacking possibilities and We perhaps lacked better decision-making, in those final instances, better decisions, better resolutions, to finish opening a match”described Gallant.
“The games are giving us a clear diagnosis of what we are lacking. It hasn’t even been a month and yet we have had to play game after game. This week and next week will be full training sessions. That will be fundamental to improve what we want to build. “I have a good squad and players willing to build something good. It will depend on the amount of work, but nothing will be easy. In Argentine football, nothing is given to you.”
“It’s a matter of improving that aspect and continuing to work. The bar is set very high for us and we cannot settle for just a narrow win. The Cup match was the most urgent positive result we had.”
“I have no problem taking charge. It is my responsibility to ensure that the team is satisfied with the best possibilities”he concluded Gallant.
