What They're Saying
River Plate forward Rodrigo Mora (La Razón): "He [Marcelo Gallardo] has asked us to return our dynamic play, the identity we had. The group is convinced. We're good. One has to come on and enjoy himself, give his all for his teammates. We're on a good run of form. [The Copa Libertadores] is a beautiful tournament. It's not every day you get to play in a cup like this. We have to try and enjoy ourselves and achieve our first objective, which is to advance to the knockout round."
Tigres UANL goalkeeper Nahuel Guzman (via Esto): "I think that we have grown our game in moments, put people in attack, complicate things. If we go [to Buenos Aires] to be spectators, we will see what happens. If we try to go out for a tie, it will go bad. [River Plate] are a team with experience in these tournaments."
