What They're Saying
Racing Club manager Diego Cocca (via Terra Deportes): "We are hungry after the result in the last game [against Independiente in the Clasico] because of what it meant for us, for the people and for the joy it gave us. But we know who we're playing next. We are going to play with everything we have, with pride and heart. It will be a difficult test because Guarani have players who mark well, but we know we have to win the game and we won't go crazy."
Guarani manager Fernando Jubero (via Ultima Hora): "We know we're going to feel pressure because our opponent has the obligation to score a goal and we have to counter that situation. We have to keep the rhythm we had in the game against Corinthians in Sao Paulo. We have to always protect our style of play and not falter."
