Gonzalo Arconada: “I want to congratulate the team for their work”
This is what Gonzalo Arconada had to day after the win: “We did well at the beginning, we put pressure on them and they felt uncomfortable. We had better feelings. Thus, we scored two goals in a row. At the end of the first half, both teams were at the same level and they finished it better. In the second half, they tried to score but our defense was very strong. At the las minutes, we were able to decide the match. It was a good match. I want to congratulate the team since it is not easy to win in that pitch”.
