Editor: Racing had quite a remarkable victory against Instituto, extending their recent winning streak. What do you think contributed to their success in that match?
Dr. Martinez: Absolutely! Racing’s performance was impressive, especially given the short recovery time following a tough match against Corinthians. Coach Gustavo Costas made strategic decisions by rotating the squad, which paid off. The players stepped up, and it was evident that they were energized and motivated to perform for their fans.
Editor: It’s interesting to note the tactical shifts Costas made. With such a rapid turnaround, how crucial is squad rotation in maintaining performance levels?
