Vidal criticized the work of the Chilean coach
He reiterated his criticism of the national team and suggested that the team lacks experience.
Vidal said: "This is what Chileans are worried about. They feel that their opponents are old. But look at how Ronaldo plays on the other side. He runs with ease. At Bayern, he was like a machine, just kept running. But now, he controls the ball, moves, and passes it with the same ease with which he delivers it to you.
He just needs to control the ball to score." He also blamed the team's set pieces. Regarding the first goal conceded, he said: “I mentioned that set pieces are very important. We shouldn't let them get close to the penalty area. It was just bad luck and the ball deflected. It hit Sanchez's head and bounced. About the Chilean team's approach, Vidal said: “If you don't see the space, just open up the ball and that's it.”
