Gustavo Quinteros and Bernardo Redín gear up for key matches

Independiente coach Gustavo Quinteros said his side improved after two consecutive wins that lifted them to the top of the Argentine league, noting the team’s intensity and a need for more solidity and goals. He highlighted the positive atmosphere in the dressing room and looked ahead to a crucial league clash with Vélez Sarsfield at the Amalfitani stadium.

Ecuadorian side Técnico Universitario, led by Colombian‑born coach Bernardo Redín, has also been preparing for its next fixture. After a 1‑0 victory over Manta FC ended a four‑match winless streak, Redín kept a low media profile and focused on tactical work at the Quillán Loma complex before the upcoming match against Universidad Católica at the Estadio Olímpico Atahualpa.
