Team’s Perspective on Current Form
A member of the Cruz Azul setup stated that an effectiveness rate of 83% is comforting. They feel very responsible and believe they have been taking many firm steps, but there is still a long way to go.
There are reportedly four or five teams that are clearly in a very good moment, or three, and some that perhaps aren’t. It is believed that the teams that are starting up could be very strong.
Focus on Continuous Advancement
The focus has to be on the present moment, whether it’s a preparation day or a competition day, giving it 100%, and keeping the momentum going.
It’s understood that beyond the good results they’ve been getting, they’re still in a position to improve and to adjust phases of their play. They aim to continue recognising the situations in which they’re doing very well and reinforcing them, and to keep working on those aspects.
Pride and the Desire for More
The team feels it’s a source of great pride and a great representation of what is expected from them. The result was considered deserved.
It is believed that in a match where they can win, there’s always room for improvement. They feel they have to attack and be humble and not let themselves get carried away by a series of favourable results. Making the mistake of missing the chance to continue making adjustments and improvements on the positive aspects they’ve already implemented must be avoided.
Looking ahead, Cruz Azul will need to attack, remain humble, and not be complacent with favorable results to avoid missing opportunities for adjustments and improvements.
