00:00But Uruguay is always a candidate.
00:02But Uruguay is always a candidate.
00:04History says it. We don't have 15 Copa America for nothing.
00:16They never talk about us, but we are always there, supporting them and giving everything.
00:20That's what I like, that we are never candidates, and from behind we come with our fists in our arms.
00:25The king of the cup is Uruguay.
00:27They have 15.
00:28We haven't seen the national team for a while.
00:30Here, our people, we are all together, waiting for this moment for a while.
00:33Of course, as always, Uruguay has the obligation to win the cup.
00:35We are always a candidate, an obligation, because of the number of titles we have.
00:38It's not too soon to say that.
00:40If you've seen a game, which is what we like, to play to win,
00:44but it's too soon to say that it's the best.
00:46We're going to wait a little.
00:48Because sometimes you sell your skin before you hunt the bear.
00:52I'm older, I have more experience.
00:59They are totally different styles.
01:01I want to thank the coach for everything he did for the national team,
01:05for the way he influenced all the players.
01:08It's the result of what we have now, with a coach like Bielsa.
01:12The truth is that the national team plays forward with the players they have.
01:17Well organized, with all the players, they are giving him opportunities.
01:22And I really like what he's doing.
01:24We came with an important message, that there was a change of structure in the entire squad,
01:28of the coach and everything, that the squad took the idea of the coach
01:31and is making him play as we like.
01:33We like that intensity we have and that.
01:35And we are very excited, right?
01:36Each one with their own theme.
01:38Each one with their own theme.
01:39At least for me, the coach Tavares was the one who revolutionized Uruguayan football,
01:44which gave us a lot of joy.
01:46We all won a Copa América just with him, but he regained the identity of Uruguayan football.
01:50And now Bielsa, with that process that is coming, he is a serious man,
01:53with another idea of the game that demanded him for the quality of the players we have.
01:57He fell like a ring on his finger, he was harvesting everything.
02:00I see it well, I like the football he does, that attacking football, we like it.
02:04I even think that throughout Tavares' time he had incredible merits to form a good team.
02:12But I think he wasted it with the great team he had, playing a little more retracted football.
02:19Now, I want to make something clear.
02:21In 2017 I was in Philadelphia and we came with the same euphoria and Venezuela beat us 1-1.
02:28So watch out, you don't have to go crazy.
