– Press conference –
What happened to Julián Quiñones that was not part of the game?
He stated that he was not 100% ready to play, he asked for understanding not to participate in that period.
Are you impressed by the match played by Olimpia at the Olympic Stadium in San Pedro Sula?
Not impressed, it was a football game that didn’t go our way, it was for Olimpia, we didn’t do a good job, they took advantage of their opportunities and a well-deserved result for Olimpia.
Do you think the key is defined following the 4-1 once morest Olimpia?
We don’t expect this result, the key is open, if they might do it at home, I don’t see why we can’t do it at home, so hope doesn’t die, everything is still at stake, it’s 50% of the series and we have the other to fight”.
What happened to Atlas in the second half of the game?
We came to play a game that was not given to us, we came from having a game of possession, circulation of the ball, we did not find the spaces well, we did not have confidence, we found ourselves with an early goal that lowered our momentum. However, in the second half, due to the desire to score the second goal, obviously we were a bit exposed at times, the speed of the Olimpia players, the power made us suffer and they were effective.
The lessons that remain from this game and how to prepare for the second leg?
There are many lessons that each game gives you. We have to think regarding what we should do and what we can do for the next key, for the second leg. Mainly think regarding the Liga MX match once morest León that we have to win and there is no other way to win, many lessons now more when we review the actions of the game.
Is his continuity in doubt following poor results in the League?
No, with the board we have not touched on that issue, they will know what they have in mind, I dedicate myself to training the boys every day.
