translated from Spanish: Fuenzalida: “The international cups look a little distant so invest the other teams”

José Pedro Fuenzalida, captain of Universidad Católica, advanced what will be the Super Cup’s dispute over Colo Colo, at the start of the 2021 season, and brazenly felt like a legend of the cross shop. As champion of the 2019 season, the cast of the strip will face in the Estadio Nacional the Albos in the search for their second online Super Cup, since in the previous edition he beat Palestino.De face to cross with the pupils of Gustavo Quinteros, the ‘Chapa’ declared in dialogue with La Tercera that “it is an important match because it marks the beginning of the season. But it tastes different because it was from the previous year because it couldn’t be played for the pandemic.” Asked by the last campaign, where UC reached its third consecutive title in the tournament, the 36-year-old stated that “if I thought I’d ever be a three-time champion? No, I really don’t. Within the dreams I had was to go out champion, then when we set the goal of going out three-time was a nice thing because I felt it could happen. With a change of technician it was more complicated, but it was given. Apart from the tri, the nice thing is that we were pointers all over the championship.” I always felt I had conditions, but I always admired those players who won titles and made stories in their clubs. I never imagined I could get to that. I always wanted to be part of something important about the club, but never at this level. It’s hard to imagine where you are, maybe later I’ll find out,” he added. As for her status on the Precordillerano team, Fuenzalida denied feeling a legend. “No, I don’t like to name or nickname my situation. No Chapadiós, nothing. I’m a player who’s won titles at this club and that makes me happy. I am one more player, that together with the rest of my teammates we have had good seasons. That puts me in a privileged place to be one of the players with the most titles in the institution,” he said. In addition, the side or far right is not seen with a grandstand of San Carlos with its name. “I don’t ask for anything. I’m just asking for a couple of seats to go with my family and kids. They’re happy, they come to the school, every game. They enjoy UC,” he said. Finally, Fuenzalida commented on UC’s great outstanding debt: standing out at the international level. “I would very much like it to be given, but I am realistic under the circumstances. We’ve had really good years, but always changing technicians, which is a very good thing for how the club is being run, prevents very big investments from being made to fight the cups. The international cups look a little distant so they invest the other teams,” he said.
