Hours before the match against America, Pumas remains calm
Hours before the match against America, Pumas remains calm, on the contrary, they have a clear view of the upcoming panorama. In fact, Alejandro Arribas, the Spanish defender who will experience his first playoff against the Eagles, highlighted the differences between the America and Pumas squads; the center-back not only pointed out the off-the-field contrasts, starting with the salaries of the players.
"They are the favorites, there is no pressure, we are determined to defeat America; I see the team in great shape, committed to winning tomorrow against America," he warned in a press conference. "I think in the offensive aspect, America has very good players, who earn more, but are equally as good as ours."
Regarding the differences in experience between one coach and another, with the cases of Miguel Herrera and David Patiño, Luis Fuentes, a trusted full-back under Patiño, praised the management of his coach: "We ended the regular season on a high note, David's work has been evident and we hope to confirm it against America, taking advantage of being at home."
