Chile – N. Acosta: “Brazil cannot be reduced to one player, you have to worry about all 11 players”

“I have no idea how this match will turn out, but I can say that it is with immense pride that we play the greatest side in the world. Our goal was to ensure CHILI’s qualification for the knock-out phase of the competition. For other countries that may seem like a big deal, but for CHILI it is quite an honour. But on Saturday we have a chance to go even further, and we are not going to let this chance pass us by. One of the great things about football is there is always a possibility of playing beyond your potential. We will make the most of this opportunity and I’m sure BRAZIL will do the same. My team is ready. But I won’t divulge the line-up until tomorrow. You want to know who will replace the three suspended Chilean players – ROJAS (4); VILLARROEL (15); PARRAGUEZ (7). If I told you, you would then know the team line-up. Wait until Saturday: changes could still be made just two hours before kick-off. As to whether the RONALDO (9)-BEBETO (20) pair is better than the ZAMORANO(9)-SALAS (11) pair, it’s not up to me to comment. We have great forwards, full stop. What I can tell you is that we will not make special assignments to mark RONALDO. BRAZIL cannot be reduced to worrying about one player, you have to worry about all 11 players. BRAZIL’s recent loss to NORWAY did not give us any false hopes: they knew they had already qualified and didn’t play to 100% of their potential. Tomorrow’s match will be another matter.”
