[Dr.Drako]

The defender of the Puno team explained what happened so that his teammates made the decision to attend a well-known Lima restaurant. "It's a matter of understanding and learning."

Binacional landed in Lima last Monday with the aim of facing Alianza Lima in the restart of League 1; However, the match was postponed due to the eight positive cases of coronavirus on his campus.

The scandalous event revolved around four 'Bi' footballers who decided to have lunch at a well-known restaurant upon arrival in the capital, endangering all of their teammates. They had to be quarantined.

“The issue with the boys who were in the cevichería was like this. When we arrived in Lima (Monday 3/8), the club put two days of hotel and food for everyone, but several of the boys had to go out to find an apartment for later. And they left just at lunchtime, and since they no longer arrived at the hotel to eat, they decided to go to the cevicheria ”, said the player.

"Before those attitudes were normal, but at this point and in this context of a pandemic they are no longer so. And much less for us. They understood the seriousness of the situation, and we are all in a learning mode: it is a matter of understanding and learning. Because we are all immersed in this, "he added.

 

Binacional will not only have to face League 1 this season, there is less and less to play in the Copa Libertadores de América, something that worries the group.

 

“We haven't been working well right now,” Reyes adds, “and we're only doing it via Zoom. It is what there is, it is what we have to do and we have to do it because when they release us all to go back to training and we have to play. Those of us who tested negative are planning to do other molecular tests and if everything goes well we could be going back to training on Wednesday thinking about facing Cantolao. There is no time for regrets ”.

"We already want to play officially because the Copa Libertadores is also coming and we cannot arrive without football rhythm. We are sad but at the same time we know that it is not about what one wants, what it is to play, but that it is about what one should do. It's going to be complicated because you can get infected anywhere, and from now on it's entrusting ourselves to God, ”Reyes concluded.
