Osorio worried about set pieces against Mexico

Being a weak side when it comes to set pieces is every team's kryptonite, but in the case of Mexico it's a historic handicap they haven't been able to shake off yet. In reality there are very few teams or clubs in the world that never have problems during set pieces against them whether it's free-kicks or corners. Mexico managed to clinch Group C's first place which will most likely allow them to avoid Argentina until the final, but despite this manager Osorio is deeply concerned with the goals the team allows during set pieces. 

After the match, the press spoke to the coach about his unpredictability against rivals who can't figure out which starting XI the Colombian manager will choose against them. The last three games he used completely different players and got a positive result in all three games. The coach accepted the praise from the press, but expressed his concern over details: "We controlled the game almost in its entirety, but the biggest worry we have is the dead ball. In the last 10 games we have played we've conceded two goals, and none of them have been from open play."

"We considered the rotations like a principle of life, we wanted to give an opportunity to all of the players because we consider all of them important. We picked a competitive group against Venezuela. Here there are not 11 set players every week."
