After almost two weeks without a break, Coudet gave the River squad their first day off since he took over. The rest came after the victory against Sarmiento.
The hard work has started to show in the results. River won two in a row, first against Huracán and then Sarmiento. This streak allowed them to climb the standings after a shaky start that had left them outside the qualification spots.
That’s why Coudet appreciated the squad’s response in these first weeks of work. “We have to keep working, but I’ve seen a lot of good things that we need to repeat,” the coach explained.
He also spoke about the criteria he will use to decide the starting lineup and made it clear that he will prioritize performance over experience.
“I don’t look at documents, the one who’s in the best shape plays,” he stated.
