Barcelona Sporting Club’s narrow victory (1-0) over Mushuc Run for the Pro League left concerns among corrida fans, due to the collective and individual performance of some players four days after their debut against Cerro Porteño in Asunción, for the Copa Libertadores.
Javier Burrai: “Barcelona SC suffered unnecessarily against Mushuc Runa”
Damien whale Díaz, who said a few months ago: “I won’t run like Adonis Preciado, but he certainly won’t think everything I think”, yesterday lost the ball in a break down the left and revealed his lack of speed and little intention of getting it back.
Thanks to Gabriel Cortez and Javier Burrai, Barcelona SC secured a long-running 1-0 win over Mushuc Run in the Pro League
“We were dominant in the first half. We didn’t play well in the second; that’s why variants were given”, was the contradictory comment of Fabián Bustos, the Argentine coach of the Yellows, about what was seen in the match.
They confirm that Júnior Sornoza dreams of playing in Barcelona
Just as the Guayaquil team managed to score with Gabriel Cortez’s shot, thanks to Adonis Preciado’s pass —both came in in the second half—, their opponents also generated actions to discount and even take three points; but, thanks to the inspiration of the goalkeeper Javier Burrai, who saved two kicks from the back of the gaucho Sergio González and a missed penalty, they did not succeed.
This was compounded by the lack of goals from Argentines Jonatan Bauman and Francisco Fydriszewski. The former failed to control and finish the pass he received from Pedro Velasco, and missed the penalty.
Fydriszewski has made it clear that he is going through a football slump. In his time at Portoviejo and the Aucas League, he has shown that he has good footwork and heading; however, last night he was not efficient enough to head a cross against Adonis Pavón’s goal.
The fans protested because their players did not play well, and they chanted: “Barcelona, bring eggs…”.
And to calm the fans’ criticism of the striker’s ineffectiveness, Bustos made a vague comment: “The everyday life of a striker is very combative. We refreshed the ranks with players who helped a lot”.
“Bauman generated scoring options, just like the other forwards. We could have opened the score earlier and managed the game better,” concluded DT in a conversation with the media after the match against Ponchito for the 4th term of the national championship, at the Monumental Banco Pichincha stadium.
On Wednesday, April 5, starting at 19:00, the Canaries will make their debut against Cerro at the Estadio General Pablo Rojas, known as Nueva Olla, for Group C of the Copa Libertadores. (D)
