[ES-EN] ¿Cuál fue el Fallo de Venezuela contra Bolivia?

Goleada de Bolivia a Venezuela

Esta es de esas derrotas que duelen y tienden a desmotivar al equipo e incluso a los fanáticos, sobre todo, cuando la próxima fecha se debe enfrentar a un rival de elite como lo es Uruguay. Lo más doloroso de esta derrota no es el haber perdido contra una de las que con todo respeto, es de las peores selecciones, sino que es por una goleada en un momento en que la selección Venezolana tomaba cada vez más fuerza mediante su buen juego y buenos resultados. ¿que ha pasado en este juego?

Altura

Todos, absolutamente todos sabíamos las dificultades de jugar en la altura de El Alto, a 4095 metros sobre el nivel del mar, la cantidad de oxigeno es menos, por lo que condiciona totalmente a la actividad física y mental. Me atrevo a decir que la preparación física no estuvo acorde a este escenario y pudo ser un factor determinante en el resultad. Entiendo que para tener toda la preparación necesaria toma tiempo, algo que en la actualidad, a los jugadores no les sobra y que se necesitan recursos para planificar otras opciones como cámaras hiperbálicas para que el cuerpo pueda aclimatarse. Esta afirmación la hago, no por la derrota, sino por la manera en que se pierde y los errores individuales y tácticos que se cometieron en prácticamente todo el partido.

Desconexion entre Defensa y Medio Campo

Desde mi humilde opinión, lo más notorio en la selección de Venezuela fue que no hubo conexión entre defensa y medio campo, otorgaban muchos espacios entre esas líneas, no había comunicación efectiva y se cometieron muchos errores causados por lo que parecía un agotamiento prematuro debido a la altura, aunque en definitiva fue tan mal el funcionamiento que significó en una goleada.

Por momentos del partido existía la sensación de que Venezuela podía defender con los 11 jugadores, pero que igualmente los jugadores bolivianos podían penetrar la defensa a fuerza de trote, parecía que los jugadores de Bolivia estaban en otra velocidad, mientras que los jugadores venezolanos estaban lentos, como si los botines estuviesen llenos de cemento. Imagino lo frustrante de ver para el Bocha Batista.

La defensa estaba cansada ya desde el primer tiempo, los cambios ofensivos equilibraron un poco el manejo del juego con la condición de que Bolivia ya estaba dosificando sus fuerzas luego de un 3-0. Los cambios de Ferraresi y Pereira fueron totalmente necesarios, observamos a Ferraresi no muy bien física y mentalmente, pero que también era característico de todo el equipo.

Los ataques venezolanos fueron infructuosos, incluso cuando la vinotinto tomó las riendas del partido ante una Bolivia que ya no presionaba, las oportunidades fueron pocas, pero dejando en el fondo agujeros y espacios que aprovechava Bolivia en sus avances para realizar acciones de peligro al rival.

No hay Excusas

Sabemos los efectos de la altura y todo lo que implica para el organismo de un jugador, sin embargo, Venezuela es un equipo completo y que puede hacer frente a este tipo se situaciones, decir que se perdió solamente por la altura es colocar una excusa para tapar una herida dolorosa, podemos colocar de ejemplo otras selecciones que perdieron en este escenario casi inhumano, pero que pudieron recomponerse luego y clasificar al mundial. Independientemente de la altura es una derrota que deja 0 puntos, pero es una derrota que puede servir para despertar y seguir luchando.

Dolorosa Derrota

Definitivamente, ha sido una derrota bastante dolorosa para el seleccionado venezolano, corta una seguidilla de 5 partidos sin perder y ante una selección virtualmente inferior. Lo más importante en este momento es el enfoque mental que deben tener los jugadores para el enfrentamiento con Uruguay, el cual adquiere mucha más importancia tras esta derrota.

The World Cup Qualifiers have begun, I remember seeing these dates on the calendar and they seemed so far away, however, they have quickly come to create many emotions in the sport that for me is the most beautiful in the world. Today there were two matches that served as the first course of this football feast.

Perhaps at this point the page has already been turned on the Venezuela game, however, it is necessary to learn from the defeats, considering what lies ahead for Venezuela's knockout schedule.

Bolivia's drubbing of Venezuela

This is one of those defeats that hurts and tends to demotivate the team and even the fans, especially when they have to face an elite opponent like Uruguay next time out. The most painful part of this defeat is not the fact that they lost against one of the worst teams in the world, but that they lost by a landslide at a time when the Venezuelan national team was gaining strength through good play and good results. What happened in this game?

Height

Everyone, absolutely everyone knew the difficulties of playing at the altitude of El Alto, at 4095 meters above sea level, the amount of oxygen is less, so it totally conditions the physical and mental activity. I dare say that the physical preparation was not in accordance with this scenario and could have been a determining factor in the result. I understand that to have all the necessary preparation takes time, something that the players do not have enough of nowadays, and that resources are needed to plan for other options such as hyperbaric chambers so that the body can acclimatise. I make this statement, not because of the defeat, but because of the manner of the loss and the individual and tactical errors that were made in virtually the entire match.

Disconnection between Defence and the Middle East

In my humble opinion, the most noticeable thing about the Venezuela team was that there was no connection between defence and midfield, they gave a lot of space between those lines, there was no effective communication and many mistakes were made caused by what seemed like premature exhaustion due to the altitude, although ultimately it was such a poor performance that it resulted in a drubbing.

At times during the match there was a feeling that Venezuela could defend with all 11 players, but that the Bolivian players could still penetrate the defence by jogging, it seemed that the Bolivian players were at a different speed, while the Venezuelan players were slow, as if their boots were full of cement. I can imagine how frustrating it was for Bocha Batista to watch.

The defence was tired already in the first half, the offensive changes balanced the game a bit with the condition that Bolivia was already dosing its forces after a 3-0 deficit. The changes of Ferraresi and Pereira were totally necessary, we observed Ferraresi not very well physically and mentally, but that was also characteristic of the whole team.

The Venezuelan attacks were fruitless, even when La Vinotinto took control of the game against a Bolivia side that was no longer pressing, opportunities were few and far between, but they left holes and spaces at the back that Bolivia took advantage of in their advances to create dangerous chances for their opponents.

No Excuses

We know the effects of the altitude and all that it implies for the organism of a player, however, Venezuela is a complete team and can cope with this type of situation, to say that we lost only because of the altitude is to make an excuse to cover a painful wound, we can use as an example other teams that lost in this almost inhuman scenario, but were able to recover and qualify for the World Cup. Regardless of the height is a defeat that leaves 0 points, but it is a defeat that can serve to wake up and keep fighting.

Painful defeat

Definitely, it has been a very painful defeat for the Venezuelan national team, it cuts short a run of 5 matches without losing and against a virtually inferior team. The most important thing at the moment is the mental focus the players must have for the match against Uruguay, which takes on much more importance after this defeat.
