The technical director of the Chivas Rayadas de Guadalajara, Veljko Paunovic, stated that he was motivated after the fight that the Mexican Saúl ‘Canelo’ Álvarez starred in this September 30 against the American Jermell Charlo, so he decided to transfer that inspiration to the team to be able to rescue the tie against the Red Devils of Toluca.
These statements were made by the strategist during the press conference after the match, where he stated that he wants to ensure that each of the members of his squad have a winning mentality despite the rival they have to face in the 2023 Apertura tournament of the League. MX.
He said this when asked about the issue of Mazatlán and the disagreement that Chivas has for not having applied the regulations as stipulated and they did not withdraw the three points from the Cañoneros; a fact that seriously affected the entire organization and did not allow them to add those valuable goals to fight for the highest positions in the classification table.
“You have to see how the points are lost. The day in Mazatlán we were tired. We lost the game on the day of América and Mazatlán, other factors affected it. If we compare it, it tells us that the team, everyone, can have a bad day, a bad streak. Try to do things well. Remove the negativity. “It has helped us,” said Paunovic.
“I was motivated by the Canelo fight, 12 rounds and always with my foot forward. And this is what we are looking for. That mentality, few of us have been losing and we get up. With more daring, we were able to win. I don’t have any problem with Víctor (Guzmán). I put the players who are good. Victor is, as I said, he wants to play… there is no problem. “They are technical decisions,” he added.
Finally, the Serbian coach explained that it is not his place to speak on the issue of the appeal to said resolution presented by the Disciplinary Commission and that it is something that is still in process by the club’s directors.
“Appeal issue. I’m going to give you something, but someone else has to answer. I don’t want to win the three points this way. The club is seeking justice. Apply the regulations. Integrity is important. The application of cases, in some, has been ambiguous. Now I don’t know what phase we are in,” she concluded.
