In the preview of the match, Plaza Colonia's captain, Álvaro Fernández, gave a brief analysis of the team's campaign. "It is a somewhat logical present because there have been many changes in the team, and the players who have arrived have to understand how things work here. We have also drawn a lot, and all of that leads to a loss of confidence, and now we are in need of a win to regain some belief in ourselves," he said on '100% Deporte' (Radio Sport).

"Despite not having a relegation problem, it is not nice not to play for anything. We have to try to win a match that puts us in the race for international cup qualifications. We hope to improve, and it is a great opportunity to do so against Peñarol," he added.

After the victory, the 'Carbonero' coach, Mauricio Larriera, analyzed the match. "At times, the performance was more similar to what we usually do and what we repeated many times last year. With the players, what makes me happiest is their day-to-day commitment, they do everything possible to follow the guidelines we give them," he said in a press conference.

"The result is a relief, but I have been here for a year and four months. I have experienced many things, and today is not a moment where I need more relief than during 2021. Yes, winning. Yes, keeping a clean sheet. Yes, improving the performance. This is a marathon, not a sprint. We have to be close," he mentioned.

"We are in a construction phase, and it has been complicated by the circumstances. We are trying to optimize human resources, be a practical team, and perhaps less flashy than we were before," he added.
