“In the penalty play, I went to the ball, I never see the opponent, I have no intention of colliding or obstructing them, I just try to cut the center and the striker tries to define, in fact I think he touches it, the ball remains loose, and by inertia there is a contact. I celebrate the referee’s decision in such a difficult setting, he had his pants on well”declared Carranza, goalkeeper of the Gloriain Sports.
“I always go looking for the ball, the contact is mutual, no one has any intention. With Monday’s newspaper they are going to claim because the game is over and each one has their interests. But the reality is what is seen and the intentions of the action. We should have gone 4-1 and avoided all this. It would have been the fairest We had two very clear ones and the final procedure would have been different. There would have been no room for any other analysis, but we could not do it, ifThey put 3-2 with push, from set pieces and one thing led to another”, added.
“We want this to be customary, I’m not saying it’s easy, but it is our intention to make a firm footing, so against rivals of such a hierarchy and of that magnitude, playing a match like yesterday’s shows that we are a serious team and that we must support it in time. That is a good parameter for us,” he said about the win against Boca.
