“I am immensely happy despite the circumstances that one has to go through like what happened the other day, which was an adversity and which is obviously a blow within the institution, But contracts are there to be fulfilled, Argentina is not easy when it comes to everything that is said for good and bad.

Besides, about the match he analyzed: “We were erratic when it came to defining. We shouldn’t have suffered what we suffered in the second half. We won again on the international level and that makes us grow for what is to come. I think also the guys who came in from the substitute bench, like Nacho, like Manu, like Facundo at the end, Franco, although he was erratic, scored the goal, Nico Fonseca came in very well… The group is strong, it is united and ended up showing the character of what we are made of.

Then he referred to the starting team’s approach with respect to the one that lost against Boca: “In one of my statements I said that I don’t like to disarm too much in defeat, because I think we had played a very good first half, we were beaten in the last minute , we went out and scored the goal that was not validated, we made our own mistakes, we had six fateful minutes and then we finished it by playing well. I’m going much further than a mistake of my own, but I also wanted to put in some fresh legs, because the rival, despite having one more day of rest than us, was better physically and emotionally than us plus the home team, The defense was maintained, Esequiel and Pablo appeared, and in the first half I made them retreat with the full-backs and then those who started in the classic came in and didn’t start today and did it again very well. Performance is above names and today the first half was very, very good and that is important for what is to come.”
The guys
To close, he talked about the kids and about Ruberto He revealed: “We are playing with two forwards, the other day Facundo Colidio scored three goals. Today I wanted to get fresh legs and Pablo (Solari) generates freshness compared to Facundo. Franco I can do it there too, I had to choose between Franco Mastantuono and Ruberto and I preferred that tomorrow he play in Reserve“.
As for the Little Devil Echeverri assumed: “I said the other day that Claudio arrived at the warm-up with a fever. We medicate him. I spoke to him, he was ready to start. I always believe in the player’s word. And even though he did very well at halftime I was very worn out. AND today there was no need to ask, He raised his hand and told me that he was leaving because he couldn’t take it anymore, because it came from having the flu.”
