What They're Saying

Veracruz manager Carlos Reinos (via Esto): "I'm very happy with the job the players have done. Thank God the biggest teams in Mexican football are behind us. That for us is a proud achievement, just like it is for the fans. When one makes the playoffs, you have to think big and we're not going to quit dreaming about our goals."

Pachuca goalkeeper Oscar Perez (via Esto): "We have to go win the game no matter what. There are no other options. We have to get three points to qualify for the playoffs."
