It was important for me to do it to prepare well for the Copa America and now I’m proving it. Let’s keep working.

Messi’s absence? We know what Leo means to us, to me and to the whole group. He is our captain, he suffered a lot not to play in this match but I hope he can recover as soon as possible. Next opponent? There are many teams that play well, like Colombia and Brazil who are always favorites for the players they have. But we have to do our job. Let’s continue like this and face each match as we should”.
