“I will be champion. It is a team that wants to fight to be champion and we will fight for this “. The sentence of Fernando Gago in a press conference with supporting journalists, he had repercussions on all national media and arrived, by chance or by chance, on campus. Thus, in Racing the word compete no longer runs, it is not up to par, it has a hint of conformity that does not go beyond. The intention is to take a step forward and definitely enter the tournament fight of the last few days. The first of many finals will be Saturday against Argentinos al Cilindro and it will be necessary to analyze how the players will react.
Gago issued a message. And it was deep, besides that he released it with a knowing smile. The coach took the thinking of academic fans, especially those who go to the Cylinder. What is happening? Most are tired of the coach’s light speech, which stresses over and over again that the team is only there to compete. The demand for something more was listening and that’s why Gago launched that powerful statement.
“To compete yes, but I play to be champion. We will fight for this. I am convinced that I want to win in football-tennis too. I compete to win, but the fuck is that only one can do it”, clarified the DT. And he continued: “In my career I have won 17 titles. A lot, yes. But I also lost an amount. This is a great institution. I want to be a champion like everyone wants to be. Furthermore, in the League Cup I was convinced that we would reach the final and lose it. “
Racing this season has failed to find the solidity that would pave the way for achieving the goal that had arisen in the intimacy of the campus. The team coached by Fernando Gago are eighth in the standings, seven points behind Atlético leader Tucumán, and are going through a difficult time from a footballing point of view, with just two wins in their last nine games.
The former player defended the results obtained in this period and said: “In 50 games of the year we have lost only six. I understand the argument that we have lost in important situations. We have arrived there by working, changing and improving. situations “.
Gago has left the comfort zone and now it’s up to the players. For the duel against Argentinos, the coach recovers a soldier: Emiliano Insúa returns after the penalty and will take the place of Lucas Orban. The other defender will continue to be Jonathan Galván because Leonardo Sigali has a disqualification date remaining. Who will be left out will be Matías Rojas, injured. The attack trident, then, will be formed by Hauche, Copetti and Oroz.
