Guillermo Barros Schelotto is taking his first steps as coach of the Paraguayan national team. In the first double round of Qualifiers, he debuted with a loss to Chile and then drew 0-0 on the road with Colombia.
The coffee fans received the coach with a poster, in which they remembered what happened in the final of the Copa Libertadores 2018. Of course, that day the great figure was Juan Fernando Quintero and the Colombians were proud of that Millionaire victory against Boca .
“Barros Schelotto, welcome to the land of Quinteroo”, They wrote next to the date that game was played: 12/9/2018. The reason for the or more? Mariano Closs’s famous account of River’s first goal in overtime.
On the field of play, Colombia extended its streak without being able to convert goals and Guillermo scored his first point. The Paraguayan team is in the second to last position, four points behind Peru (they are currently playing the playoffs).
It is worth remembering that Juan Fernando Quintero was not present on the double round of Qualifiers, since due to logistical issues he could not leave China. The idea is that he can be in the next matches, since he is a very important player.
