Mosquera after losing to Melgar: “Together with my technical command we are going to keep trying”

Sporting Crystal lost 2-0 to Melgar this Sunday, November 6, for the second leg semifinal of League 1 at the National Stadium. The goals were scored by Bernardo Cuesta at 52′ and Luis Iberico at 84′.

After this defeat, which leaves the Celestes with no chance of fighting for the national title, Roberto Mosquera declared the following at a press conference.

“Football is like that. You have to understand it and nobody can think that one is going to come to apologize for a bad performance. Grimaldo was the most unbalanced player on the team and Yotún returned with his quality intact, which made us anticipate a different match. We had to change the system and with a rival as powerful as Melgar “began by saying the DT.

“When we beat him in Arequipa 1-0 a month ago, we played a fantastic game, but it is the past. The team has been weakening and it is very difficult to define a duel when you make two changes in the first half. What has been worked on is already difficult to do collectively”he added.

“Melgar’s goals came after the departure of two players. You work for the first time to play in a certain way, but we were forced to change the entire structure of the game that we had created”, Mosquera said.

“Failure is not trying for me. Together with my technical command we are going to keep trying. It cannot be a failure to be the best of the accumulated for three years in a row “he declared.

“I have not had any contact with Sporting Cristal. My contract ends this year, I have nothing defined in the future. All I want right now is rest.”ended.
