Key quotes from Federico Lértora:

  • “We perhaps deserved to get all three points for what we did with one man down… in the second half I think we were better than them with what we were able to do.”
  • The impact of the red card: “A lot, because in today’s football, being a man down is a major difference. I think the team handled it well and at times it didn’t show.”
  • Support for Matías Godoy: “It can happen to anyone, they’re mistakes, we can all make them. He’s hurting more than anyone, so we have to support him; we’re a team and we’re here to stand by each other.”
  • “Today, when things got tough, the team showed character again… we came through a complicated match against an opponent that plays well.”
  • “The team understands the club it’s at, what’s at stake, and what the fans demand. We pushed forward, we tried to go and win the match.”
  • “There are situations we’re going to face throughout the tournament, and we have to adjust. Today we handled it well, and that gives us confidence.”
