Vaccari: the great game vs. Boca, his admiration for Heinze and why he doesn’t watch many games

“Yes, I liked how the team played, the attitude with which they faced the game and the determination to go looking for the three points as we usually do. The boys played an excellent game in the PT, except for the situation of Benedetto. In the ST we couldn’t control the ball as much, but we did control it with intensity and aggressiveness. Very satisfied with the work of the boys, the anger comes from not getting the three points”. Thus, Julio Vaccari, DT of Defense, commented in a press conference what left him the 0-0 tie at La Bombonera. Great game despite the fact that the score did not change. His team shares the top of the League table with San Lorenzo, both with 13.

Delving into some concepts, the former Vélez expanded: “The boys circulated the ball with serenity, we were able to find spaces that Boca left, on the sides of Varela’s containment. With David Barbona and Escalante we were able to grab the ball and create situations. The other key was the good reading of the four defenders where the rival team gave us spaces. In the ST we had a little less speed in circulation, the rival team had time to settle and prevent us from occupying the spaces left by Varela”.

Proud of the performance of his players, He told what he asks of them in each game: “What did I tell the players? We can’t speculate, it’s what we’ve been doing since we took over, going out to win on all pitches and doing it the same way we’ve been doing it. We prepare to fight every game and be protagonists. A goal against would not have made me change the script, we tried to be the protagonist and press within 90. We were able to do it to a large extent. In another not, we readjusted to the power of the rival”.

And finally, a curious confession from the DT: “I can’t answer you, I watch the rest of Argentine soccer very little. I have work to see the rival that we have. I watch five more short games that the analyst makes me so as not to be wrong. Of the rest, except Newell’s because I admire Heinze and I love him a lot, I watch the rest of the games very little. Yes, this was a great game”.
