Costa Rica's national team started with the left foot in the Concacaf Nations League. The team “Tico” fell 3-4 before Curazao in the Ricardo Saprissa Aymá Stadium. Fernando Batista is the main indicator in this reverse.
The Costa Rican team started the game. In the first half, the “Ticos” were left with a comfortable 3-0 advantage in the scoring thanks to the goals of Orlando Sinclair and the double of Carlos Mora.
However, the United did not maintain the advantage in the scoring. In the 62nd minute of the match started the epic rebound of Curazao. With goals from Tahith Chong, Jordi Paulina and a double of Kenji Gorré, the curazolean team made its rebound.
This is a defeat that regularly marks a turning point in the processes. This is due to the controversy between Keylor Navas and Fernando Batista. Although the outlook is not encouraging, the “Bocha” trusts in the work.
“I trust in my work, in what I do day by day (...) I work and sometimes this happens, they are difficult moments.
At these levels it seems almost unthinkable that you can lose a 3-0 advantage playing in the condition of a local. Dick Advocaat and his leaders achieved it and left exposed the conditions in which the Costa Rica project is. Batista insists that we must continue to work and polish the errors evidenced in this meeting.
“45 minutes very good and 45 minutes very bad (...) The only thing he does is work, assume the mistakes and take the time to correct them,” he added.
