Forward will be in the first final of the LigaPro to be played on December 5 and is pushing for CS Emelec, a team that was his showcase to go to Mexico.
The offensive emerald Ayrton Preciado regretted the departure of technician Guillermo Almada. DHe said that he could be in the first final that Emelec will play, of which he hopes to achieve the title, and he referred to the work in the selection of Gustavo Alfaro.
“A bit sad about the result (Tigres beat Santos Laguna 1-0 in the second leg, and due to their better position in the table they qualified at semifinals of the Apertura-2021 tournament of Mexican soccer). I think we deserved to finish in a better way because of all the work the team did to get up from a difficult situation that was going on. We got up in the last dates, we passed the playoffs and we were close to qualifying, “he said in statements to Soccer Channel.
Preciado regretted the Mexican soccer regulation. “At home we took the advantage (2-1), but that rule that exists here in Mexican soccer conditions a little that minimum advantage, it cost us to have received a goal at home and in our visit to Tigres we lost 1-0, in the aggregate was a tie (2-2), but Tigres passed because of their best position in the general table. We didn’t deserve to go out that way. “
Departure from Almada
Regarding the departure of Guillermo Almada, who led him to Mexican soccer, he said: “I was a bit surprised, like many. We did not expect the club to make that decision with the teacher for everything he did, for everything he generated for the club, a player who was not in his best moment, he got the best out of it. I do not speak only for myself, but for other colleagues who did not have that regularity, brought out the best in each player. His work here was excellent, many know it, with a very low average age he managed to keep the team always among the first ”.
The offensive described Almada’s work as excellent. “The work he did here was formidable, but, out there, football has those things and it no longer depends on it, it was due to a club and the decision has been made (to terminate the contract), but I keep everything that he did, with everything that supported me .
Preciado acknowledged that he spoke with his former technician. “I talked to him, I thanked him for everything he did for meHe always supported me, he told me that he trusted me because of what he saw in Ecuadorian football and he knew that he could give more; pitifully injuries were an obstacle, but I always wanted to be 100%, he knew he could give more in the final part of the tournament. He could count on me I knew how to take advantage of the minutes he gave me and it went in the best way. Always grateful for everything he did for me, he is a coach that I respect and admire a lot, he has an incredible personality, he knows how to work in the best way, the discipline he maintained at the club had not been seen with other coaches ”.
No one has insurance for their position
The forward also referred to the role he plays in the selection of Gustavo Alfaro. “Nobody in the National Team has a fixed positionIf you realize the teacher makes several rotations Gonzalo (Plata) has had to play on the left, Joao (Rojas) in the middle, I have had to be on the right, on the left, Franco (Alan) on the right , to Mena (Angel) on the left, that is, no one has defined their position in the National Team”.
The man from Emerald highlights the work that Jeremy Sarmiento has done. “The teacher makes rotations, it was Jeremy (Sarmiento) and he played an incredible game in Chile. The teacher is the one who decides and perhaps for the next game Jeremy will not be there, it will be Pervis (Estupiñán), where he will be able to play Chiquis (Diego Palacios) further back, the truth is not known because each game is different and nobody has their position insured there”.
“I had two cracks in the tibia in Mexico, something that did not finish understanding; In Emelec, Aucas, Deportivo Quito and in Portugal I was never injured, I played all the games of the yearSince I arrived here (Mexico), injuries have been an obstacle for me. I was injured after the Copa América (Brazil 2019) and my passage here in Mexico is difficult because I did not have a regularity, it was difficult to get back into the rhythm after being injured and it was expected that I would injure myself again, not only in the tibia, but muscularly, because he had been inactive for more than a year ”, describes the Ecuadorian about his injuries.
For his recovery, Preciado says he needed help. “I got a physical trainer, I had surgery, I stopped for five months, because it was a process, I started working with the U-20, I was in the preseason because if I wanted to be at the level of my teammates, I had to prepare well physically to get back to the level soccer player, now I shouldn’t neglect myself because here soccer is very demanding ”.
A probable classification to the Qatar 2022 World Cup of the National Team, Preciado believes that it is feasible. “You don’t have to think that Peru took us out of the last World Cup, you have to think of Brazil first. I think you can beat himDepending on what happens with Brazil, obviously we are going to give it everything against Peru, but first we must live the game against Brazil, we must not give it up for lost, one of the most important teams in the world, but we already showed in the Copa América that we could have beaten him. Now we are home, we are with our people, I think we are having a good time, there are good players, but I think you can get an important ranking against Brazil which has been beaten in Quito. (D)
