Statements - Amaranto Perea (Assistant Coach of Colombia)
"Every match is a different scenario. (Against Venezuela) we were not precise with the ball, we did not circulate well; against Chile it will be different, they will go more on the attack and we will find more spaces, but getting the movements and precision right will be the key to have the improvement we had in the second half."
"It stood out a lot. In these matches we have been able to adapt to different systems and opponents. We have had flexibility, in the same match we have had to modify, it speaks of intelligence, beyond the plan, they have been able to absorb the information and be able to take complex matches forward. Tomorrow they will start in a certain way, but they will change and we will have to adapt".
"We have tried to consolidate a group and it is difficult to guarantee that the same eleven will repeat, it depends on many aspects. There are small details that can make us change a player or not. Regardless of whether he played well. Sometimes it is thought that the changes are because of how the player played, and sometimes it is because of the opponent's characteristics. There won't be big changes. We will decide the details until the last minute.
"No, we want to go to every stadium to propose. You will hardly see a team stuck in the back waiting for what the opponent does. We have the capacity to adapt to the rhythm of the match. If we have to retreat and defend, we will do it. But our vision is to go and fight in the opponent's field".
Statements - Eduardo Berizzo (Coach of Chile)
"In a complex qualifying round like this one, the important thing is to have a clear objective, to keep working, to keep our minds focused. Uruguay has already passed. We have an important match this Tuesday, we play at home and we will try to win it, as we do every match. We will think about a match where we have to take possession of the ball and play it with intelligence."
"Colombia is an opponent that plays well and has very fast wing players. They have players who have a one-on-one advantage on the flanks and who also play very well. We will press and try to stop our opponent from playing".
"We will try to use the ball well and build better attacks than we did in the first match against Uruguay. In a Qualifying Round like this one, you can lose matches and that doesn't mean you have to lose strength to reach the end alive".
