“It’s a nice little week, the one we’ve been waiting for. Preseason felt a bit long, but now we’re calm and ready to face the best part, which is starting to compete,” said the full-back, already focused on Saturday’s match against Deportivo Madryn.

A group that is starting to come together at Colón

When analyzing the makeup of the squad, Peinipil agreed with Ezequiel Medrán’s assessment regarding the balance between experience and youth. “A good group has come together, there are many who know the division and that’s important. We’re gradually bringing in the club’s youngsters, and I think the group is well put together,” he highlighted.

In that sense, he emphasized that the challenge will be to live up to what the situation demands: “Let’s hope that on Saturday we’re up to what the fans expect.”

Internal competition and responsibility

Since his arrival, Peinipil feels he has a clear role within the team. “I’ve felt part of what Ezequiel asks for, and I take it on with responsibility,” he stated, making it clear that internal competition is a constant motivation.

“I prepare myself every day so I can show what I know at the weekend,” he added, with his sights set on earning a place and keeping it.

Game time, friendlies, and an idea that’s starting to take shape

The preparation matches were key to fine-tuning the team’s play. “The friendlies in Uruguay helped us get to know each other, we were coming off a tough preseason,” he recalled.
