What They're Saying

Monterrey midfielder Severo Meza (via Esto): "Of course it's America and they have a lot of confidence and they handle themselves well, but the truth is: If you win, you can get into one of the playoff spots. That's what should motivate us."

America defender Paul Aguilar (via Esto): "We have to rest, think little by little. Monterrey is coming and when we have to think about the [CCL] final, we will, but we're taking it little by little."
