Argentine Martin Demichelis, coach of Mexican soccer’s Rayados del Monterrey, celebrated this Thursday’s reception with the River Plate fans’ show of flair for his team in the second leg of the Copa Libertadores semifinals.
“I don’t doubt the River fan, his love for the team is a big opportunity ahead of the day and I expect nothing less in the game, the scenery was beautiful and thank God nothing happened; economic sanctions do not depend on me, it is not my place to comment,” said the former Argentine River center. The strategist also explained in a press conference.
The ‘Millionaires’ crashed out of the Copa Libertadores final last Tuesday after losing their semi-final series against Botafogo in November 0-3 against Brazilian side Atletico Mineiro.
How many fired technicians are there already in Apertura 2024?
Demichelis’ Rayados face a difficult time in the Apertura 2024 tournament, risking dropping out of the direct qualification zone for the quarter-finals after adding just one win in their last five games.
Monterrey is in fourth place with 25 points, close to leaving the six that will compete in the play-offs and advance directly to the best eight round. With three games remaining in the regular season, Rayados must not let the points slip away. Their next game is this Saturday against Atlas.
“The tension has increased because there is no more margin for error. I believe in my players, I believe in a group that is not going to disappear, it is going to show its face,” added Demichelis, who has three wins, four draws and three losses since taking over the Monterey bench last August. .
