Puebla to bet on victory against Santos Laguna

Aware of Santos Laguna's good moment as the top leader of the tournament, Puebla de La Franja will bet on obtaining victory next Friday at home, where they remain undefeated, said Colombian midfielder, Christian Marrugo, who trusts in continuing the rise with the blanquiazul squad.

"(They are the) leader, where you go out to win, I think we all know that, but we know that Puebla has been strong at home, we haven't lost, we are there, so I think they will also come with a little caution, us with the confidence that we have of winning at home, of playing good soccer and now confirming it on Friday."

After finishing Tuesday's practice at the "Los Olivos" Sports Complex, the coffee-grower player was emphatic in pointing out that the absence of Santos' top scorer, Djaniny Tavares, is not an advantage for Puebla, since La Comarca's team has very good elements who fulfill their role perfectly in the attacking axis.

"Of course, not having the top scorer is always a significant loss, but as we all know, in soccer nobody is a priority, there are no indispensable players, so I think he's in good form, when a team comes like this, everyone is motivated, everyone, the one who replaces another is going to be in the best way, they are going to do things well, we have to be aware, the one who replaces him is going to do it well, now it was replaced by the Argentine Furch, so I believe that those who are taking turns are doing things well, we have to first think about Puebla, improve what was not done in Atlas, have the ball, have more attack volume and that way we can harm them," he pointed out.
