José Guadalupe Cruz, coach of the Dorados de Sinaloa, pointed out that it was a good decision to postpone the "Thursday night" match in the Ascenso BBVA MX due to the insecurity situation currently affecting the "Perla del Humaya".

Briefly, and through text messages, Cruz responded to ESPN Digital that the authorities' decision was the right one.

"It was the most sensible thing to cancel the match. We are all staying concentrated at the hotel, and all of us and our families are well protected, thank God," responded the 'Profe'.

The organizing entity, through social media, announced that the date when the match will finally take place will be announced later on.

ATLANTE AWAITS INSTRUCTIONS TO CHANGE LOGISTICS

A member of Atlante's staff, who traveled as the team's press representative to Culiacán, reported that the shooting in the city caught them off guard, just as the team was having their meal.

"We were having lunch when suddenly we were informed that gunshots were heard. We were given orders to go up to our rooms and the League informed us that the match was suspended."

The team had scheduled their return to Cancun on Friday, but due to the cancellation of the match they are waiting to be informed about the rescheduling of the game.

Meanwhile, Manuel Velarde, president of the blue and maroon team, indicated that "for the moment we are fine and calm, waiting for the authorities to instruct us."

"We are well protected, everything is fine. I will have a meeting with my coaching staff," he concluded.
