His analysis of the game and the presentation of Argentina
“It has been a long time since we got together, it is not easy to get back together with little work. We continued what we had been doing, at times we were good, we played a good game. We were good in pressure and recovery, they practically did not create situations If it hadn't been for the stopped ball, they were hardly reaching us. It was a difficult game, as always with Chile. “
Thinking about what is coming
“Little by little we have to get stronger again, there are guys who debuted today. It's not easy, but I'm happy beyond the fact that we couldn't win.”
His memory of Diego Maradona
“It was a very special match because it was the first without Diego. We know what the National Team meant to him, even if he wasn't in the stadium, he was always there. For being the first without him and because of everything that is happening in the country and in the world. It is also a pity that there was no public. “
“We wanted to give Diego the victory and represent the National Team as he always did, leaving everything behind, but we have to continue.”
