What They're Saying
Tigres UANL goalkeeper Nahuel Guzman (via Esto): "This is an important game to reach the quarterfinals of the Copa Libertadores, where we can match the best tournament run in Tigres history. It's an important game, so we can't relax. A hard month is ahead of us, which can force us to play until the end of May and beginning of June. We can also be 10 days from being eliminated from every tournament, so we have to take advantage and be brave in this game."
Club Universitario (via Jornadanet.com): "We have to go out there and try to get a result that will favor us and allow us to advance. That will be difficult, but we have to keep fighting. Not for nothing, but we made it this far. I am proud of my players. They have demonstrated a quality level of play."
