Liga MX 2024: Gustavo Lima defends his players: “They suffer from it, you have to believe them”

toAfter the Pumas' crushing victory over Puebla, Cats coach Gustavo Lima defended Eduardo Salvio, who declared at the weekend that playing at the age of 12 in Ciudad Universitaria was “abominable”.

“What they say is true, the player who experiences it firsthand, those who have been through this club or those who have come to play here, they all tell you the same thing. You have to believe those who suffer from it. We also respect what has been agreed and we We're all in on this. In the end, it's the players who suffer and it's good for them to express themselves.”

Gustavo Lima: “What keeps you at this level is the team, not the starting lineup.”

What did Gustavo Lima say about Ali Avila's debut?

On the other hand, the coach praised the performance of Ali Avila, Rayados' youth booster who scored two goals on Sunday in the 3-0 win over La Franja.

“We are very happy for Ali (Avila) and for everyone who came on as a substitute, I think they were key players. In a week that saw a lot of wear and tear, it was the team that kept the team strong. It was a very difficult match.” -A combative match, as we knew that we would face the problem of injuries and we knew that it could be determined by some mistakes or who arrived better in the last minutes.
