When the teams play in World Cup Group K on Tuesday in Guadalajara, Colombian coach Nestor Lorenzo stated on Monday that his squad must neutralize DR Congo’s counterattacking danger while preserving their identity.
With a 3-1 victory over Uzbekistan, the South Americans can guarantee a round of 32 ticket. However, Lorenzo cautioned that DR Congo, who drew 1-1 with Portugal in their opening match, would present a different tactical challenge.
According to Lorenzo, Congo’s 5-3-2 formation, which holds two strikers high, makes counterattacks and transitions the main threat to control.
In the match against Uzbekistan, Luis Diaz scored and provided an assist, and Lorenzo commended the adaptability of the Bayern Munich attacker.”How the moves end is more important than how many times he attacks,” Lorenzo remarked of Diaz. “Lucho is a complete forward.”
Lorenzo declined to reveal his starting lineup but stated he had no serious selection concerns.
After several of his players were clearly moved against Uzbekistan at the Azteca Stadium, Lorenzo implored them to channel the energy of the fans without losing their cool.He added, “We must play with a cool head and a hot heart.”Lorenzo declined to reveal his starting lineup but stated he had no serious selection concerns.
