Guatemala's National Team: Pressure and Hopes Ahead of Crucial Match

Gerardo Paiz, president of FedeFutGuate, is known for playing his role as the 'man in charge,' allowing our players to be just one meter away from the fans; stage fright will be at its peak. To win, we must play a very precise, focused, and effective match; there is no room for error. We cannot allow ourselves to be dominated by closing our lines; if they attack us, we must immediately show resolve and read the game correctly. Christiansen must be energetic and not so apathetic; he must understand that he had a true privilege; after failing to qualify for the Qatar World Cup, he was handed the 'Sele' for a new process, a luxury that even Julio César Dely Valdés never had. The time has come for Carrasquilla, Escobar, Ismael, Rodríguez, Fajardo, Michael Amir, to prove that we can, that we can return to our style, not the mistaken European method, and that an entire country can continue to dream about 2026. By Gabriel J. Castillo. How times have changed, when we could defeat our rivals with a well-defined style of play, ball possession; now our greatest asset to get a result is to rely on illusion. Yes, that one, which still remains intact, in the end, it is an intangible, if it cannot be seen and bottled to know its specific weight. The ball hugs and burns, and few want to have it; in this commitment to take the thread of the game and produce a real turning point, it depends a lot on the players' behavior, attitude-aptitude with 'c' and 'p'; both are necessary. The cannons are pointed at Tommy, but the players are the only ones who can change this story, they must unleash the sacred fire, that impulse, that imprint that achieves unthinkable results. That several players have underperformed is true; I prefer to mention the two who have performed notably: Cristian 'Fulo' Martínez and Orlando 'Cuty' Mosquera.

The coach is undoubtedly the one who must steer this ship out of the storm, be the soul's conductor; in the same way, he requires warriors with explicit leadership. That team, the first World Cup team in Russia 2018, had no shortage of leaders, or do you not remember the six we called 'the six generals'? Román, Gavilán, 'Matador', Blas, Penedo, and Baloy. As for measurements and moods, I do not know in how far the issue of Carrasquilla in Mexico can affect the group; he even received death threats for injuring Cruz Azul's goalkeeper, Kevin Mier, and this is joined by the migratory problem of Fariña and Samudio, who could not continue the journey. The Clover will be a pressure cooker and will burn because the 'chapines' will fight for their dream; never before in their history have they reached a global event. We had warned it, everyone was going to aspire to it.
