Nolberto Solano analyzes the classification and what awaits the Peruvian National Team at the 2018 World Cup
Nolberto Solano analyzed the classification and what awaits the Peruvian National Team at the 2018 World Cup. The member of the coaching staff of the national team spoke to the official page of the World Cup.
"If you analyze our qualifying round coldly, it was suffering. In our country, we say 'if the Peruvian doesn't suffer, he doesn't enjoy'. The gods aligned for us and we took advantage of it," said Nolberto Solano.
He revealed: the Peruvian crack Solano would have liked to play with
"What can happen in the World Cup?" they asked Ñol. "In Russia, we have to be up to the challenge to compete against three very tough teams. It will require a lot of work and suffering... To also enjoy it, like good Peruvians!" he affirmed.
Nolberto Solano said that what happened with Ricardo Gareca showed the difference this time. "Despite starting the qualifying round poorly, they believed in his process, and keeping a coach is always a good thing. That has been the key. The Federation has done a very good job and they made the right choice with the coach," he stated.
"I am very happy for the country, we are very passionate about football. In Peru, we have all been fans of the national team. I have experienced good and bad moments. Perhaps more bad than good (laughs), but the people have always been there. You can imagine the madness that was experienced when we qualified. It was a huge joy to give that to the people," Ricardo Gareca's assistant said.
