River Plate Statements
Demichelis spoke after the victory in the first leg: "I analyze beyond the goals, in general terms we played a great match. For many, the result was too little, but the only one to blame for not scoring the third or fourth was the goalkeeper, one of the stars of the match with seven saves. There was one big culprit and it reflects the general analysis of the match. We went for it in the second half, we are not stingy, we go forward, we look for more? It was clear that it was going to be an even match, with a DT that knows us very well and made things difficult for us. I am very happy that the team has realized that we can compete with them as equals".
