What They're Saying
Tigres UANL midfielder Egidio Arevalo (via Esto): "We have a complete team. Anyone can play. There is no such thing as guaranteed starters or substitutes. We're the same team. I think we earned a good result in the first leg. We could've lost. We have to be prepared for everything. At home, we should have more chances."
Santos Laguna striker Diego Gonzalez (via Esto): "Of course, we're not okay with the result [from the first leg]. We always look to win at home and that's what we tried to do in that game. I think we played a good first half and then a defensive error let them equalize. In the second leg, they will defend their advantage and although we're have our chances, we can't open up [defensively]."
