translated from Spanish: Guillermo Maripán: “We are collapsed with them continuing to talk about Vidal and Bravo”

The defense of the Chilean national team, Guillermo Maripán, spoke at a press conference and was emphatically about the conflict between Claudio Bravo and Arturo Vidal. “We are collapsed,” the Monaco zaguero began. “Two years talking about it. They ask you at every conference, you’re exhausted. It’s going to be ten days, he said (Mauritius) Island, things are going to be talked about and everything’s going to be okay,” said the former Catholic University.” If Bravo’s alone in the concentration? The coexistence is very good. It’s just a photograph, it doesn’t reflect anything. The coexistence is very good,” he added. On Saturday at 1p.00 pm against Colombia, the defender recalled the most recent game against coffee growers for Copa América in Brazil. “In the last match it was a very intense duel. They’re in the process of changing, we’re getting to know them too,” he said. Even, in that match, Maripán had an outstanding participation. “I had several duels, I won a lot. It was a nice game and I hope it will be repeated again this weekend.” According to the latest trainings of Reinaldo Rueda, the starting defense for this duel would be with Maripán and Paulo Díaz as central zagueros, thinking that Gary Medel is suspended for the first date of the playoffs. “When I came in 2017 I partnered with Paulo. I knew him from the bottom when we were fighting. I have a good relationship with him. Clearly that gives us a plus. There are several very good defenders,” said the Monaco player. “There is a particular situation: there are several colleagues who are suspended. When the time comes, the teacher will make the best decision. These matches and those in November will be for the professor to test and stay with the group,” he added in relation to the variants in the defence. Meanwhile, the striker of the Lion of Mexico, Jean Meneses was optimistic about his third nomination for the Chilean national team. “It’s a nice opportunity for what’s to come. You have to have performance in the clubs and then in Chile. I hope to be an alternative later,” he said. “I have things to improve so that the teacher keeps looking at me,” he added.
