There is practically nothing left for the Chilean team to take the field again for the Qatar 2022 World Cup Qualifiers, where in September they will have an exhausting triple date playing at home against Brazil and being a visitor against Ecuador and Colombia.
One who analyzed what this match series will be for La Roja was Arturo Vidal, who in an interview with TNT Sports made clear his wishes to wear everyone’s team jersey by stating that “You are always happy when you are called to the national team. They will be difficult games, we know our opponents and we have to take it easy. They are matches to the death. We have to be honest, we have three candidates to qualify for the World Cup “
“We all have the same illusion of playing a World Cup again, of taking Chile to the top. The Eliminatory is long, we will be serious in these games and we want to get the maximum points ”, King Arthur added.
In addition, the one born in Colo Colo was enthusiastic about the level of Iván Morales in the Cacique and his nomination for the September duels: “I am very happy for him, he is a boy who earned his nomination. He has been scoring many goals, he has matured a lot since he was with us in Mexico. If it is believed and prepared, it will be an important contribution ”.
In this sense, the midfielder valued the work of Martín Lasarte on the Red bench, stating that “I see the coach well, I see him motivated, the players are happy, they try to get the best out of what the teacher wants. We still had little time, the Qualifiers and the America’s Cup were on top. Now with these games we will try to improve a lot. When they called us to Copa América, he came from a three-month injury, after Covid, I was never 100 percent. I tried to adapt, but not how I wanted. Now things change, I am well prepared, most of them are playing. Hopefully we have good results ”.

Finally, the King made a call to the fans of the Red, who will once again say present at the stadium against Brazil: “The public is the most important thing in football. These two years have been difficult. The motivation is different, thousands of things that the public gives when it supports or is against. This will help us a lot against Brazil, that they support us every time we get close to goal. That make the locality feel. It will be a contribution to have the people in our favor ”.

“I come home, the Monumental is everything to me. There I was born, since I was 12 years old I was in Colo Colo and coming back will be exciting, nice. I hope to finish with the three points ”, Vidal concluded.
The Chilean team will play against Brazil at the Monumental on Thursday, September 2 at 9:00 p.m., then before Ecuador in Quito (Sunday, September 5 at 6:00 p.m.) and finally before Colombia in Barranquilla (Thursday, September 9 at 8:00 p.m.).
