According to him, the Alianza coach denounced abnormal behavior on the part of the referee body that led the match between Jocoro and the capitals.
There was controversy at the end of the game in between Jocoro and Alliance. The fire crew finished 13 unbeaten games in a row without losing to Albos coach Milton “Tigana” Meléndez in the Major League
At the end of the game, the players led by their captain Marvin Monterroza denounced the referendum body led by central Héctor Salazar. The white coach, Milton Meléndez, was among those who stepped in to discourage protests from his elements, with no warnings or evictions.
In his statements on the field to the media, Meléndez said he “regretted” what he believed could have been a defiant stance by line one José Antonio Magandí against some of the white players.
“It is good that we are losing, we are not invincible, but it is also a shame, and they do not like it, that the referees celebrate because we lost. Line one, making fun of our players for losing; he drives our players crazy … and that’s fine, we lost by one goal, but this can’t happen, it’s a shame, “said” Tigana. “
From the outside and separated only by the cyclone mesh of the field, some Alianza supporters joined the accusations against the referee quartet. Meanwhile, the Jocoro players celebrated their victory.
Meléndez also regretted the conditions on the field of play at the Tierra de Fuego sports center and adhered to similar statements he made the week before the game.
“All teams, not just us, have problems with this type of football field. It’s more of a wrestling match than goals and games. That will be explained to the referees at the end because there is a lot of contact, ” he added.
“We are not invincible”
Regarding the development of the meeting, Professor Meléndez clarified that the defeat was due to “a mistake” in a game he said they had in their hands.
“We had controlled the game, but due to a mistake at the exit we scored the goal and then they saw we had a clarita there hitting the base of the post (1T) and not coming in. I think there were very few chances to score, it was more of a mid-court game and (because of) a mistake on the court we lost the game, ”he said.
The coach was also calm despite the early change of midfielder Óscar Cerén, at 33 minutes. Aside from not being quite in shape, he was half-scared of the entrance they made him there. He had to leave the game, but he is not injured and he is fine ”.
For the white mate, the defeat means “nothing” in terms of concern for his team. “It is true that (it is) the first of the second phase and this has only just begun. We knew it was going to be difficult here, but that doesn’t mean we are lost yet. For his part, Jocoro’s coach Carlos Romero spoke calmly about his team’s victory against the albos. These were part of his statements:
“It was going to be a tough game, we knew Alianza would come with all his quality arsenal, the most important thing was the work the team was going to develop, these three points are golden,” said Carlos Romero.
