University of Chile
The coach of Universidad de Chile, Diego López, did not hide his annoyance after the statements of the Unión Española player, Rodrigo Piñeiro, who ignored the U a few days ago and 24 hours later clarified his statements through his Twitter account.
It was a hectic conference that the technician from the University of Chile, Diego López, starred in today. in the preview of the confrontation against the Spanish Union that will be played this Sunday at 4:00 p.m. in Coquimbo.
And all this wrapped up in a hectic week in the university that mixes between sporting problems and the anger of the fans who can no longer bear to see the team in the place it is in the table. However, the moment of the U has also triggered the reaction of players from other teams, such as Rodrigo Pineirowho defends the colors of Hispanics.
During the week, Loly told ESPN “Facing a great is always difficult. There is no longer that pressure of playing against the U, when we play with Colo Colo there is that pressure or fear and we know that we can really lose“, but that a day later Piñeiro himself tried to clarify through his Twitter account offering apologies and that at no time did he want to disrespect the U, his players, some former teammates and even Diego López himself, who he directed it in Peñarol.
But that was not going to stop there and today the Memo referred to those words of his compatriot and although he does not directly attack the man from Santa Laura, he hopes that they will serve as an incentive for his soccer players. “They served a lot, they served a lot because today with the networks, with everything, you hear, you see everything, what do I know? I am a player from the U and I see a player from Unión Española who declares in that way, well, he has to be a revulsive and say `well, on Sunday you are going to face a real team’ That way we have to take these statements, I think it’s part of the game,” he argued.

López added that “there is a player who speaks from the other side, so that’s good. I prefer to have a player who doesn’t speak as much, but who later demonstrates on the pitch, that’s what I prefer from a U player. Like I said before, demonstrate and improve on the court, speak more on the court, speak little outside and demonstrate much more on the court“That’s what we have to do and what this shirt deserves, the people and ourselves,” he said.
On Sunday it will be seen if the words of the red player echoed in the students. In the previous one, the game is hot.
