Defender Renzo Garcés has already stated his position regarding the confusion that led him to enter the locker rooms without knowing where the doping control room was. "It all started with a confusion of not knowing where the doping control would take place. That is why, while they informed us, Mauricio Viana and I waited on the stairs of the tunnel that leads to the dressing room. It would be very unfair for me to be sanctioned for something I have not done. It was not my responsibility, but we will wait and see what the authorities determine," he concluded.
