It's worrying what has been anticipated since the 2006 World Cup. European teams have emerged relentlessly with four titles, and the victorious nations like Italy, Spain, Germany, and France are already part of World Cup history. What's happening.
As a balance, the crown table indicates 12 for Europe and 9 for our continent, correctly surpassing us with three Olympic rounds. If we think about tying, twelve years should pass by winning the championships in Qatar, USA, along with Mexico and Canada in organization, and in the host country in 2030 - justice should be in Uruguay. Is it possible?
After spending over 40 years in the local and international soccer arenas, we dare to suggest changes in South America. These changes are:
There is a mirage, what is it? If a player is key and doesn't play, faith in the team and fans is demoralized. It shouldn't be that way.
Physical preparation is on par in all teams around the world. In South America, it is necessary to enhance the body type from childhood. It's not a secret.
It might cause laughter! In Europe, spiritual work is deeply rooted in the player's environment. In South America, it's unknown.
Short speed - with reaction exercises - and medium speed - 20, 25, 30 m - should be worked on more in the developmental stages. It's a weapon in Europe.
In South America, full-backs are weak in attack and tend to focus more on marking, which deprives offensive support. Europeans with defensive and offensive skills have won matches and titles.
In South America, we get caught up in unnecessary dribbles and with a constant trail of carry-overs. It subtracts from the game, while Europeans add speed with or without the ball. An admirable formula.
South American national teams should be managed by coaches with character and extensive experience in knowledge, not mediocre/clown figures who allow themselves to be dominated by so-called stars.
If South American football wants to breathe and update, it must work more on skills on the field and mentally. There is no other truth... (O)
