translated from Spanish: Mauricio Isla: “Colombia has been doing things right for quite a few years”

Mauricio Isla, a Chilean national and Flamengo player, anticipated what will be on Tuesday the crossing of the ‘Red’ against Colombia, in Santiago by the 2022 World Cup Qualifiers, stating that “it will be difficult” for the good game that the ‘coffee makers’ are deploying and for playing without the support of the public. Facing the October 13 crossing at the Estadio Nacional, the right-hander stated that “it’s going to be difficult, I think it’s hard for everyone to play without our audience, but Colombia has been doing things right for quite a few years, they have experienced players from the best leagues. We’re going to have to do what we know best and try to deal with this match in the best way.” As for the sensations of defending the ‘Team of All’, after missing the agonizing 2-1 defeat to Uruguay, ‘Huaso’ said that “I am very happy to play for my country again, in a playoff that will be very difficult and with the dream of reaching another World Cup for us and for the country as well”. Finally, Isla commented on what was his arrival at Flamengo, on his first adventure in South America, and how he has been received in Brazil.” At Flamengo it was a quick enough hire. Leaving for Brazil was all smooth, all normal. People through their social media have treated me very well and so have my peers, so I’m very happy about that,” he said.
