What They're Saying
Santos Laguna striker Javier Orozco (via Esto): "It was important that we all ran and that we all aimed for the same objective of winning the game [against Chivas Guadalajara]. I think we've had that mentality since the game against Morelia [in Week 12]. We're all focused on winning and we sacrificed ourselves on the pitch to get the result, so this won't be an exception. We won't have to change much and even less now that we are close to achieving our goal."
Queretaro manager Victor Manuel Vucetich (via Esto): "We will not change anything. We will work with the same line we have been. We talked to the players and we know that's what is required. The team is doing well, they're complete. We can face any obstacle, but we will find a way to get the best out of our team."
Tactical Preview
Player to Watch: Jonathan Bornstein scored a timely goal in Queretaro's 2-0 victory over Pachuca in the semifinals. It was the 30-year-old's first goal of the campaign and he has finally solidified his place as the club's left-back.
