Marcos Bolados was chosen by Gustavo Quinteros to command Colo Colo’s attack against Deportes Magallanes. He scored a goal and earned the praise of an idol of the Cacique.
Colo Colo did not start the 2023 season in a good way when they fell, due to penalty kicks, against Deportes Magallanes in a new edition of the Super Cup. Without having the campus closed, it was possible to appreciate that Gustavo Quinteros’s team is still filming and that he needs to have all his men available.
One of the positions that has given the most headaches is that of center forward. The departure of Juan Martín Lucero changed the plans of the strategist who had El Gato as the key man in the season and who, for the moment, still does not have his replacement, despite the arrival of Leandro Benegas.
Marcos Bolados receives praise from Marcelo Barticciotto
As happened last season, the one chosen to fill attack reference positions was Marcos Bolados. The former Deportes Antofagasta was centralized and commanded an offensive made up of Marco Rojas and Agustín Bouzat. Despite the final result, his game was quite correct and he converted a goal that meant the opening of the scoring for Colo Colo.
His performance did not go unnoticed by one who follows the evolution of Popular. In the analysis that he delivered in Al Aire Libre en Cooperativa, Marcelo Barticciotto had no problem “saying crazy. Bolados played better as a 9 than as a right winger”.
“It is clear that it is not 9, that it will not be 9, but He played a very correct first half, hitting diagonally, getting between the two central defenders and scoring a goal, a typical 9 goal”, added the 1991 Copa Libertadores champion.
Despite what was previously said, Barti clarified that “It’s not that I want it from 9, I prefer it on the outsidebut I graph what happened in the game the other day”, alluding to the solution that Quinteros had at hand, due to the little time of work that Leandro Benegas accumulated.
Finally, the 7 del Pueblo highlights the confidence that the white player is taking. In this regard, he pointed out that “Bolados must be saying ‘I start with the starting shirt’. At one time it was regularIn the first part of Quinteros he was fundamental when he played with Iván Morales, also when he returned from Católica”.
For now, Marcos Bolados and Colo Colo are preparing for their debut in the National Championship against Deportes Copiapó. With a few more weeks of work, we will have to wait for Gustavo Quinteros’s decision in the attack: Will you continue giving minutes to the winger or will you give Leandro Benegas the starting shirt?
