" It looked like we were going to fall, but was far from that idea and here we are , " said Julio Olarticoechea before being eliminated today Argentina to Honduras in the first phase of the Olympic Games , an embarrassment that He not lived the country since Tokio'64 editing.
"And here we are ... gone!" She may have limited today at the Mane Garrincha stadium coach of the Albiceleste set to put an end to a campaign marked by failure.

Tokyo, where he was buried 52 years ago that black record of Argentine soccer in Olympic Games is back on the horizon.
Perhaps in Tokyo 2020, with the Olympic Games that will happen to Rio de Janeiro, where there no longer remained a single good for Argentine football memory, it will be time to settle accounts with a more organized, better structured selection and technical supported by a process, everything he could not live 'Basque' Olarticoechea.
The former player of three world champion in Mexico '86 came to the bench just one month, shortly after the Copa America ago when Gerardo Martino resigned as coach by the lack of support from local clubs to the Olympic team.
An unusual event for a country that in recent history had won gold in Athens 2004 and Beijing 2008.
'Tata' Martino, who had to lead the team at the Games in Rio de Janeiro, did not support the contempt of big, reluctant clubs to give their young figures to undertake the preparation in Ezeiza, headquarters of the Argentine selections.
Olarticoechea was promoted to the position, although it did not change the working conditions.
" It was very difficult because in Ezeiza we were eight training. Little by little we went arming" revealed today Angel Correa, playmaker Atletico Madrid who, despite being one of the players who fought to change the bad luck, missed a penalty when the game was 0-0.
An undisputed 2-0 defeat Portugal in the debut was the first notice to mariners of the dangers posed River crossing in a team that only had more media players like goalkeeper Gerónimo Rulli , playmaker and striker Angel Correa Jonathan Calleri.
Difficulties and again the tribune against, as happened today in Brasilia, Argentina won 2-1 to Algeria.
"We won a final and we have to find another classification" then announced Olarticoechea.
The second final they lost to a draw.
"They left everything we are obviously very sad, we cried Football gives you this:.. Joy and sadness," said coach to appear before reporters after the deletion.
The technician joined the criticism by disorganization in the group was armed but said he was more sensitized by the pain he has taken account of the wardrobe.

Sampaoli expects another call AFA: double command in sight?
Night falls in Europe and Jorge Sampaoli feel a tremendous honor: a distance, talking to his brother and bursts of joy upon learning that on September 2, La Renga will play in Casilda, in the Alumni Club, the social center of his lifetime. Not a single day, or Seville or Orlando , where he was last week, or Germany, where he is now to play some friendly, they forget the afternoon when, as being coach, was fired and left the court, climbed a tree and, from there, gave indications.
"I am a conqueror" explains and many laugh thinking a romantic, but it is not a literary exaggeration: he who when passing through Buenos Aires leaves aside the likes of establishment and goes to prison in Ezeiza to visit his friend Pato Fontanet and goes through life, discovering stories and trying to change them . So when the phone from one of the advisers of Armando Perez commenting sounds that are interested in chatting with him, the head is shaken and is waiting for you to confirm when the meeting will be.
The reality show on which it is immersed story about who will be the coach of the Argentina team still ongoing. Armando Perez, FIFA appointed head of the standard commission of AFA, a kind of auditor, said they would meet with a number of coaches and does, raising, in the middle, the dust that leaves every encounter.
Edgardo Bauza and Miguel Angel Russo and went through agape Perez, Victor Taboada -Manager TSU Cosmetics and adviser to the president of Belgrano, Santo Biasatti -presentador different programs Clarin Group and Fernando Marin , director of football for all, informally spokesman Mauricio Macri in AFA: ie talks with a single leader elected by the club members and no specialist in this sport. The names coming, then, on the agenda were Diego Simeone , Jorge Sampaoli, Marcelo Bielsa and Mauricio Pochettino . After first telephone conversations, the extécnico of Chile tops the odds.
Simeone and ruled Pochettino dealt with : the Atletico Madrid warned via Marin -being Blanquiceleste holder, a company that I manage to Racing Club , the man the government gave the Cholo its first charge as coach - who rejected the attempt; "There is no chance that move me , " said the Tottenham in a press conference. Berizzo, when receiving a call, suggested that should talk with the leadership of Celta. With Bielsa's all more complicated: "We are seeing how we find Bielsa We are trying to confirm this because it is a matter of time He is in Rosario and I find it a little difficult to go Bielsa is like all the candidates I have not spoken..... but a person close did. Do you feel like? Well, I dunno. I want to hang out with him and listen to him . " Sampaoli then grows.
Sampaoli has a contract with Sevilla and a provision of 8.1 million euros to get out of there, at least until June 2017. That has formally two options: someone pay or direct the two teams at once , as they once did Selection Guillermo Stabile between Argentina and Racing. Perez said in a radio that's a possibility contemplated . From the coach environment, they have no plans, but can not confirm because, of course, still there was no meeting where the AFA sit with him and announce what they intended. Since that time, you think about that part of his coaching staff work on a system to constantly browse the players of Argentina and stay in Seville until June 2017, being with the team in playoff games and training in the previous days.
The former coach of Chile has the endorsement of Perez, Daniel Angelici, Marin and although it is a little displaced, with Tinelli . Since AFA, they are arranged to think out of legal mechanisms to Sevilla. But his greatest treasure is its relationship with Messi and respect that Javier Mascherano has to him. He met 10 at the FIFA gala for the Golden Ball where both were awarded. And above all, there chatted first with George, Dad Argentina captain, who returned to talks in the last month.
But the phone for now, again not sound and the big rumor that was going to be the coach left the AFA sector and not his. The reality show will, as anticipated Perez, who continue to have meetings. Double command or not, do not be alarmed too. Although the idea of Argentina give him round the head, for now, the great joy is that La Renga will play in his hometown.

Bolivia is not out of the script at any time: press high, braking failure and try to block the auction. If the win did not come was the lack of effectiveness in the definition , not the task of the Green. Messi did everything well except the final stitch, with peers who did not define precisely, as Biglia or Banega.
Correa income for the injured Di Maria gave it another go and beat the attack, but also contributed to failure to close the plays. It could be the game Leo 500 with a stunning free kick that took Lampe angle, it could also be the goal of red with a high kick. It could and should be wider the difference, but finished the doubleheader with six of six points is essential and 10 in a superlative level again.

Captain Messi scored the second penalty after a nonexistent lack of RONALD EGUINO on Ever Banega that the Venezuelan Jesus Valenzuela referee sanctioned without hesitation.
Thus, the star of Barcelona reached 50 goals with the Albiceleste and was one of the 500 official goals in his career.

The important thing is that we touch wherever we touch, we feel like today , " said Leo about the warmth with which the people Cordovan manifested in the stadium. In addition, he referred to the gesture Monday with people at the door of the hotel and said it was not his idea but "was an initiative of all."
Of course Messi also echoed the controversy over the state of the field and brought tranquility to Barcelona.. " I finished well The court was not in the best conditions, but all in all try to play We pulled the party forward, at times we did very well. Capable when the result was already controlled the pace down a bit. "
