‘You work your way out’: Falcioni’s fix for Atlético Tucumán’s slide | OneFootball

The crisis at Atlético Tucumán has hit rock bottom. The defeat against Argentinos Juniors in La Paternal was another slap in the face for a team that hasn’t tasted victory in three matches and has dangerously started looking at the relegation table with different eyes. Amid growing unrest among the fans, Julio César Falcioni broke his silence and called for calm, though with a clear demand for what lies ahead.

“The only way out of this is by working very hard. We have to get to the end by collecting as many points as possible and then see what we need for the second half of the year,” the “Emperor” said after the 1-0 defeat. The coach knows the current squad has come up short, and his plan is ambitious: weather the storm with what he has and bet on a strong transfer window, where he will ask for high-caliber players to secure survival.

The outlook for El Decano before the break is demanding. They must host Banfield at the Monumental José Fierro and then make up the postponed match against River in Núñez. In addition, they have the clash against Talleres in the Copa Argentina on the horizon, a competition that could bring some relief or end up sinking the ship completely in a forgettable first half of the season.
