What They're Saying

Pumas UNAM Guillermo Vázquez (via Medio Tiempo): "Hopefully, we would love to qualify [for the playoffs]. The men have done a great job, but if we don't do things well enough, we don't deserve it. We have to get better as a team."

"A game like [the 1-1 draw against Pachuca] is complicated," he added. "We stopped doing things offensively and defensively. If we continue like this, it won't be enough."
