SELECCIÓN CUMPLIÓ SU PRIMER ENTRENAMIENTO

30.01.2007 | anfp.cl


Con la presencia en cancha de sólo cinco seleccionados adultos, la "Roja" practicó en el Complejo Juan Pinto Durán.



Con las deserciones debido a lesiones menores de los "azules" Waldo Ponce y Manuel Iturra, la selección chilena de fútbol cumplió hoy en el Complejo Juan Pinto Durán su primera práctica de cara al partido amistoso del próximo 7 de febrero en Maracaibo ante Venezuela.

Bajo el mando del técnico Nelson Acosta y el preparador físico Ítalo Traverso, la "Roja" contó con la presencia de varios integrantes de la selección Sub 17 y de los seleccionados Miguel Pinto (U. de Chile); Boris Rieloff (Audax Italiano), Leonardo Monje (Universidad de Concepción), Arturo Sanhueza y Humberto Suazo (Colo Colo). Los también colocolinos Alexis Sánchez y Arturo Vidal fueron licenciados hasta el domingo para que puedan disfrutar de algunos días de descanso luego de su participación en el Sudamericano Sub 20 de Paraguay.

Los demás integrantes de la Selección se unirán directamente al trabajo en Venezuela, hacia donde la delegación viajará el lunes próximo. Completan la nómina Claudio Bravo (Real Sociedad, España); Pablo Contreras (Celta de Vigo, España); Jorge Vargas (Red Bull Salzburgo, Austria); Ismael Fuentes (Jaguares de Chiapas, México); Hugo Droguett (UA de Guadalajara, México); Luis Pedro Figueroa (Arsenal de Sarandí, Argentina); Jorge Valdivia (Palmeiras, Brasil); Matías Fernández (Villarreal, España); Mark González (Liverpool, Inglaterra) y Reinaldo Navia (Atlas, México).

La "Roja" juega a partir de las 19 horas de Venezuela el 7 de febrero en Maracaibo. Los seleccionados viajan el 5, regresan el 8 y llegarán a Chile el 9.





Basically...The BIG RED has started the 2007 phase @ Juan Pinto Duran getting ready for the games Vs Venezuela in Maracaibo on the 7th of February...Lots or Most of the players will be joining the small chilean contingent that will meet the team in the Joropo Land ..

Cacique...this is GREAT News...for You an I...and 99% of Chilean Fans ......

Mayne-Nicholls condicionó continuidad de Acosta en caso de fracasar en Copa América.

El presidente del fútbol chileno señaló en entrevista con un matutino santiaguino, que la permanencia del entrenador al mando del combinado nacional tendrá directa relación con el rendimiento de la "roja" en el certamen continental en Venezuela.



Now .... my only question here is what our Boss thinks is a FAILURE ?????? Not winning Copa America, or merely not coming in the first 3 ????


"Exijo una explicacion !!!" :howler:

 

[Cacique]

Failure???
Must be do not have a good performance ..
Is that clear??? :howler: :howler: :howler: :howler:

Colocolo you forgot how the chilean talk ... many words that in fact can have many meanings :howler: So, always will be right :howler: :howler:

Let's see what will happen in Maracaibo ... I dopnt understand what for is this game :rollani: but at least Mark Gonzalez will be back in the NT after the Dublin affaire

 

[colocolo]

Well WE need friendlies...and lots of them...this one in Maracaibo with some returning figures will let us know where we stand in preparation for Copa America

 

[EL MATADOR]

Ooooo I am really excited about this new generation Just wait till Jimenez comes back. I am sure we are headed to South Africa Now how the heck can I watch this game in Australia..............absolutely hopeless.

Im SURE TVN International will be showing it around the globe .... :thumbsup:

 

[EL MATADOR]

Mmmmm there used to be a satelite that transmitted TVN however it went broke. I dont think any stations in Australia have it anymore. I just have foxtel which has espn so I can probably catch the copa america and thats about it.

Anyway seems like a dominant win for la roja on the road. Matigol :star:!!!

 

[colocolo]

Venezuela 0 CHILE 1

Matigol...again !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :kiss:

 

[Cacique]

Thnxs God Mati scored again!!!!!

Well we won, but nobody can say that was a good game of la roja.:rollani:
Aniway, is good we won out ...
Grande Matigol!!!

 

[colocolo]

We havent loss 5 in a row away from Chile said the paper this AM, La Cuarta I beilieve ... .. .. ...but didnt we just lose in Spain in December ???

 

[Cacique]

That wasnt an oficial game ... i dont understand well what that was but if im not wrong the coach wasnt Acosta.
I guess was a sort of special game and the NT coach was Elías Figueroa, a master as player, one of the best of America ever, but as coach:thmbdown:

 

[colocolo]

And as a Journalist/Comentator..also a BIG

 

[Cacique]

:howler: :howler: :howler:

A journalist always has to give the information. Here is.
That NT game in Europe, was aspecial game to help the footballers union.

 

[colocolo]

Good..then our Nat's are slowly gainning ground every month in the Fifa Rankings !!!!
We NEED to go play in Europe....That can surely help us .... playing SA Teams or Central American teams doesnt cut it in my books ...

 

[Cacique]

Agree ... I hope Maine Nichols, the new ANFP's presidemy can do something, h was a respectful worker in FIFA.:rollani:

 

[colocolo]

Well it is official....the SAME EXACT fixtures for a third WC Eliminatories...I hope we done have the Uruguay-Argentina Scandal on the last day for the 3rd time !!!
