by the way...all my life i have been a colombian fan, but i mus say im pretty happy u didn´t make it thru the "repechaje" game against asutralia...
1) because i kinda hate maturana....he stole us here at costa rica, and did a very bad work as a dt. never work it!
2) because colombia had their chance at 90, 94, and 98....all the times kissing the floor, leaving us sad... Uruguay needs a chance.
3) cause i dont think colombia well ve able todefeat australia.... an i do believe uruguay can!!!
I am sorry my friend but you are wrong.
1st. I am not mad because colombia was out. It was not Uruguay that left us out, it was the horrible campain that we made and loosing so much points home. I was expecting to see the national team out from the WC LONG TIME AGO, meybe since July. I am not a fanatic, I like the good foorball, and I can say that this colombian team of this quilifyings simply sucks, and this is a lesson that our directives were needing, now I espect all they been sweep out from their positions, they are just soo bad and without criteria.
2nd. I don't like Maturana either. I think he WAS a great manager(90s), but now simply SUCKS! What he did to Costa Rica and Peru, and after to colombia itself, come on! He has to retired already! And El Chiqui Garcia did not so much either for the team, he was also an ultra defensive DT, not at all matched for the players that can be find here. And I think they did so wrong calling this antiques and oldies like Asprilla and Aristizabal, they were needing wheel chairs to play man!
3rd. Read my post well pal. Uruguay was my team for that match in Melbourn, as a suuthamerican that I am, I was wishing them to win. BUT after seen them playing like they did I felt totally dissapointed
It is because I like well played football, not the people that go and hide under the 3 sticks, Uruguay has so good players like EL Chino Recova, and its unbelieveble that they played like they did, and if you see the qualifying matches they have played like this almost all the season. I then saw the Aussies playing (or trying to) put the show, good football (in their style) and that is something that I give value to. I think they are just needing a guy with more technic, like a 10 of a good south american team, to have better results. If they won only for a penalty, it was because Uruguay had all its team defending. Sad IMO.
4th. Its true that El Centenario is a difficult place to play, but I really think that Australia can make a good presentation there. If Uruguay chooses to play like before, with art and atacking, with all the GARRA that they had, then I hope that they pass, but if they are gonna defend themselves again like in Melbourn, then I am sorry but IMO they have to stay out of the WC.
