Minute 98′, the Bolivian national team players defend themselves tooth and nail, protecting the 2-1 scoreline that would not change again. Historic victory for the Verde over Chile at the National Stadium, putting an end to a long streak of 31 years without scoring three points away from home in the Qualifiers.
Was it something to get excited about? Let Luis Haquin, the captain of the national team, tell us about it.
And El Deber Sports managed to enter the Verde’s locker room after the match and captured all the intimacy up close: “I’m sure that in every corner of the country we made more than one person happy, we made our families happy, the children, those people who believe in us,” said Haquin surrounded by his teammates.
“These are opportunities that come our way. Enjoy this moment and go back to your clubs with the pride of being Bolivian. We have to change the history of this country. We haven’t achieved anything. We have to go to the World Cup. Dream about that every night before you go to sleep. I congratulate you and may God bless you,” said the captain.
Bolivia, with nine points in the qualifying table, managed to pull off a surprise against Chile to get a good result and maintain the hope of fighting for a place in the 2026 World Cup.
