Christian Bassedas on what Ricardo Gareca achieved: “We must never lose hope”

Last Tuesday, Ricardo Gareca, coach of the Peruvian national team, gave another joy to a football country like ours, since with their strategy and commitment of their leaders beat Paraguay 2-0 at the Estadio Nacional for the last date of the qualifiers. After that result, the bicolor secured its place in the repechage and awaits the winner of Australia vs. United Arab Emirates to meet his rival, with whom he will play a quota at the World Cup in Qatar to be held this year.

Ricardo Gareca, following his achievements, became a symbol for Peruvians and the leader that the national team needed for several decades to shine before the world by demonstrating competitiveness and good play.

That is why a friend from Argentina answers Infobae's call to congratulate Ricardo Gareca on what he has been reaping with Peruvian National Team, since taking office in March 2015. Who is the friend? This is Christian Bassedas who knows all the secrets of the 'Tiger' to be successful.

Christian Bassedas is one of the people who best knows Ricardo Gareca and he was the man who took him and accompanied the 'Tigre' in his time as DT in Vélez Sarfield.

“I am very happy for Ricardo, 'El flaco' or 'El Tigre' whatever you want to call him. But the Peruvian people must be happier than they are experiencing and are close to achieving,” Christian Bassedas exclusively tells Infoabe.

For the former sports manager of Vélez Sarsfield in the Gareca stage, his success is due to his good group management and that leads to the commitment of his players to achieve success. “You always have to give a little more, but it's important that you enjoy the moment. The team did very well, beat Paraguay well and it seems to me that it is a group that is 100% convinced of what it wants. I hope everything goes well for the happiness of all the Peruvian people,” Bassedas told Infobae.

At the same time, when asked about how Ricardo Gareca together with his leaders was able to get him back to the bad start of the qualifiers, Christian Bassedas, friend of 'Flaco', said the following: “We must never lose hope,” the former sports manager of Vélez Sarsfield sentenced to Infobae exclusively.

Gareca always trusted the ability of the Peruvian footballer

Another key factor is that something that Ricardo Gareca always highlighted was the characteristics of the Peruvian player. “We believe in the Peruvian player, he is a strong player, I had the opportunity to lead Universitario and get to know a little more closely the intimacy of the player what everyone knows is very talented they play well football,” Gareca said on many occasions.

Gareca, a technician who emphasizes game situations

Since Ricardo Gareca took over as coach of the Peruvian national team in March 2015, jobs have changed by one hundred percent. From planning routines and other activities that generate resounding changes in the physical theme of the players to monitoring and contacting the technical commands of the clubs to analyze how they are working in their respective sports institutions.

Ricardo Gareca always makes real game actions and situations that can happen in the match during training. That ultimately helps in the game. There, 'El Flaco' with these works seeks to surprise its rivals and in the process help its players gain more knowledge of the virtues and defects of their rivals to face.
