Nacional de Uruguay coach after Always Ready vs Cristal: “It is not normal to play at 4 thousand meters”

The coach of Nacional de Montevideo, Álvaro Recoba, expressed his concern about the weather conditions in which his team will play against the Bolivian Always Readyfor the first leg of Phase 3 of the Libertadores Cupafter the bad experience he had Sporting Cristal by losing 6-1 on their visit to El Alto.

“I have already seen the match between Always Ready and Sporting Cristal three times, it is not normal to play at 4,000 meters. We know that the goalkeeper has to be a figure and try to score the chances you have. “I have only one doubt about Thursday’s team,” ‘Chino’ said to the press in his country.

He also said that “It is difficult for the big team to think about a result other than getting something, whether it is a point or three. That’s the fear I have, that it could happen that you lose one to zero, obviously I hope not, and maybe you have to settle. It is atypical, where we run a lot of risk, but it is a 180-minute key.”

The eastern strategist was also concerned about what could happen to his players when playing a match at more than 4,000 meters high.

“We can arrive at the airport and the footballers can feel bad. I saw players bleeding from their ears when they got off the plane. “We will try to take as few risks as possible,” he added.
