The best Christian Cueva we have probably seen in the South American Qualifiers heading to Qatar 2022. The striker was in numbers and played the best of the Peruvian national team and one of the main protagonists to secure the repechage on the last date. However, José Neyra, his personal fitness trainer, is the one who was behind his great level.
In a recent interview he told about the rigorous training that 'Aladdin' took to reach this level with the 'white-roja' and at Al-Fateh. “He motivated me every day because he looked like an athlete who was just starting out. There (Saudi Arabia) they were surprised to see him work in the heat and they reached us bottles of water”, commented the coach in conversation with the Football Como Cancha program of RPP Noticias.
In addition, he also stressed that in the Asian country training in the morning is not normal and for this reason teams usually train at night. “In Arabia it is difficult to live because of the climate, the heat is unbearable and we have to train with Christian in the morning because at night he does it with the club,” he said.
On the other hand, the coach also mentioned that this was not only his job, but also of the player's family and the coaching staff of the 'bicolor'. “This work is not only mine and Cueva's. The emotional support he always had was his family, also Professor Ricardo Gareca and Néstor Bonillo. It's a joint effort,” he said.
Let us remember that the Peruvian national team will play the repechage for Qatar 2022 on June 13 in Doha from 01:00pm (Peruvian time) and their rival will come out of the match between Australia and the United Arab Emirates. Without succeeding in passing the repechage, he will settle in group D of the World Cup together with France, Denmark and Tunisia.
