“In the first leg things happened that normally don’t happen to us. They had a very high percentage of effectiveness: five shots, three goals, credit to them. Now we are evaluating so that this does not happen again and luck falls on our side. We have set out a path that the players are clear about. Just as luck was on their side there, hopefully this time it will be on our side,” he said.

Lucas hopes that in this Tuesday’s game the only protagonist will be the ball and not other types of actions.

“Teo is an excellent player, but those things – provoking rivals – he has already done in other games, he likes that aspect. Tomorrow (this Tuesday) will not be the exception. We have great players who have to learn to manage those situations, which surely those of us who like soccer don’t like, because it has nothing to do with the game, but we have to learn to dominate them. Hopefully tomorrow (this Tuesday) the protagonist will only be the little ball,” he concluded.
