translated from Spanish: Cristopher Toselli: “Every match for us is a final”

Goalkeeper Cristopher Toselli on Wednesday anticipated the weekend match with O’Higgins, valid for the 21st date of the 2019 National Championships, hoping to achieve a good result that allows them to maintain or extend the difference with the closest chasing anus on the board. The squad led by Gustavo Quinteros leads the ranking with 46 points with some comfort, presenting a 13-unit advantage over the second, Colo Colo, with 10 matches to go. The strip cast goalkeeper spoke of the entrance of the clash with the pupils of Marco Antonio Figueroa. “It’s a new ending, as we’ve taken the last few games. We know it’s a tough team, with unbalanced players and a technician with a clear methodology. We think of ourselves rather than the opponent and hope to be able to maintain the difference with the nearest rival,” he said. Asked, in meantime, for the 2-1 defeat with Unión La Calera by Copa Chile, where he was a starter, Toselli noted that “we go out of focus and we know that if we don’t enter 100% they can cause us problems and so we did. Then we were able to balance the match, but Unión La Calera closed behind especially after the injury.” We can’t get through the first few minutes, because we can win any team and we know there’s a big difference. Every match for us is a final,” he added. In addition, the 2014 World Cup in Brazil was no stranger to the serious injury (fracture of tibia and fibula) suffered by midfielder Francisco Silva, who will have him for about six months off the court.” It was a pitiful situation because of the injury and the severity. It’s a very traumatic and ugly injury at first sight, but the ‘Cat’ is fine, I went to see him on Monday and he’s in good spirits. It’s a very long recovery, but in the end you look good. The campus laments this situation very much, (Francisco) Silva is a very important person for the campus, a reinforcement that arrived a short time ago, but we also know that it is part of our profession that such situations occur,” he said. In the beginning you never think that what happened happens. When Germán (Lanaro) asks for the ambulance, we realized there were bigger problems. They could be rushed quickly because it is an injury that must be treated immediately. We want to try to forget that situation because it’s not pleasant and we just go to football,” he added. Finally, the 31-year-old goalkeeper referred to the participation of the side team Alfonso Parot and the team-back César Pinares in the ‘Roja’ friendly against Argentina (draw 0-0) and Honduras (defeat 2-1).” I saw the goal (of Parot) and I think that within everything were a contribution, first against Argentina they were up to the task and you can win a future nomination, which is what we want. Not only the two of them, but other players we think can be selected,” he said.
