Changing the mind of Puebla

José Manuel de la Torre’s start is not the best, but still, The numbers are not that bad compared to last season’s team.. In the Clausura 2024, Los Camoneros finished in the last position in the general tableIn 17 games, Puebla only got 1 win and 2 drawsThe other results were defeats.

In this sense, José Manuel de la Torre explains how complex it has been come to this institution after their recent performances. “Chepo” explains that the main work should focus on the mental aspect.

“It is difficult to reach a club with those figures from a previous tournamentI think that before that tournament they had done good tournaments, it is a little incongruous, something short-circuited. It was necessary to purge in order to be able to rebuild the team, restructure it, yes little by little and that the players realized and how they have done it, they are aware of that, the vast majority were already there, some went and came back, I think in the spirit, that they realize that their capabilities“, he explained.

Puebla’s next match will be this one Saturday, August 24th. The Camoneros will face the Eagles of America in a duel that will take place at the Ciudad de los Deportes Stadium.
