Conscious of everything that has been said during the last few months about Alexander Alvarado, who is experiencing the best moment of his career in Liga de Quito with 8 goals and 2 assists in 19 matches, Luis Zubeldía spoke about the level shown by the 10 of the King of Cups.
Interviewed by radio La Red (102.1 FM), the 41-year-old Argentine coach analyzed Alexander Alvarado's moment, who had been shining at a high level and after staying in Chile due to a false positive for COVID-19 and missing several days of training, he could not perform at the expected level in the 3-2 victory over Delfín and the 2-2 draw with Defensa, being substituted in both matches.
"Alvarado is a good player. It's not easy to come to Liga, the adaptation. Being in the spotlight is given by the big teams. You have to know how to live with that. When you do well in 2 or 3 matches, they already talk about national team call-ups. You have to maintain an emotional and performance balance in a team like LDU. That's the secret to being in these teams for a long time," said the coach of the King of Cups.
"You have to leave it in that sense. You never know about the national team (unofficially it was anticipated that he would be called up for the friendly matches in June). The healthiest thing is to work with humility and perform in the matches you play. In these important teams, everything you did in the previous match doesn't matter for the next one. I trust that any of our players can perform for our team," Zubeldía added about the 23-year-old Quevedo-born star.
