Cruz Azul boss wary before Flamengo Intercontinental clash | OneFootball

Nicolás Lacarmón complained about the short rest time for Cruz Azul (MEX)

Cruz Azul (MEX) faces Flamengo this Wednesday (10), in a match valid for the quarterfinals of the Intercontinental Cup, in Doha, Qatar. Before the decisive clash, coach Nicolás Larcamón commented on his concern with the schedule, which could affect the team's performance.

— The schedule became complicated, even more than it already was, with the commitment of the national league semifinals added to this international competition and, above all, with the complexity of the trip, which intensifies everything even more and makes preparation more uncomfortable — said coach Nicolás Larcamón.

WHAT IS THE CONTEXT OF THE COMPLAINT?

Last Sunday (07), Cruz Azul took the field to face Tigres (MEX) in the Mexican Championship. Despite the 1-1 draw, the team led by Nicolás Larcamón was eliminated in the semifinals of the national tournament.

However, Cruz Azul had little time to lament their elimination from the Mexican Championship. That's because the squad had to travel to Doha right after. Because of this, Nicolás Larcamón was not pleased with the logistics and commented on the players' fatigue.
