El Tuto valued his moment in the Cacique’s portico and highlighted the competition that exists to keep a place in the title.
Fernando de Paul has taken full advantage of his opportunity in Colo Colo and grabbed the starting shirt to not let it go anymore, to the detriment of a Brayan Cortés who has spent five consecutive games in the substitute band after his act of indiscipline.
El Tuto has established himself as one of the great figures of the team since he took over the albo portico and despite being converted five times, he has been a key player in this rise of the albos in the 2023 National Championship table.
Fernando de Paul highlights the struggle to earn a place in the Cacique’s goal
During this day, the 32-year-old goalkeeper faced the microphones at a press conference, where he was happy with his ownership y He highlighted the fight to stay with a position in the goal of the Popular.
In the first instance, the goalkeeper maintained that he has felt “good, always trying to be ready for when it’s my turn. There has been a lot of turnover in the team from playing various competitions. We all have to be prepared and try to win everything we have to play. No one has a guaranteed position and there is good competition. That improves the group level”.
Following the same line, the goalkeeper stated that “I felt good, in internal competition and in matches. That is essential for the group that is above all.. We continue as always, trying to win the position with a healthy competition”.
“The group of archers has a very good competition. Trying to win my place on the weekend first with Curicó and then the Cup. We know it is difficult and we all want to be there, ”he added.
Finally, he spoke of his projection into the future and assured that “although one always thinks about what can happen, I try to focus a lot on the present. Thinking a lot about the future generates anxiety and takes you out of the focus that is the present. I always try to be thinking about what is now and what is coming is the game with Curicó that we have to win. I try not to think so much about the future because what we are experiencing now is important and I try to focus there.”
Gustavo Quinteros is more than satisfied with the performance of Tuto, who will once again be part of the game this Thursday against Curicó Unido at the Monumental Stadium, which will put an end to his participation in the first round of the 2023 National Championship .
