0:00 SOUNDBITE (Spanish): Ricardo ‘Tuca’ Ferretti, Tigres Head Coach:
“I believe that after 10 years it’s illogical to change something that has been giving us results and brought us where we are now to invent something new. And we are coming from similar “do or die” matches in Orlando (USA, at CONCACAF Champions League) that allowed us to be here. My team will play the way they like, considering the opponent we will face.”
3. 00:40 SOUNDBITE (Spanish): Ricardo ‘Tuca’ Ferretti, Tigres Head Coach:
“Well, if the boss said he is ready, he’s ready. There’s no issue then. I believe that, first, Andre(-Pierre Gignac) does not have all details but Carlos Gonzalez need the medical ok from our medical staff and, after that, I’ll talk with the player to see if he’s 100 percent fit. If he’s 100 percent, we will evaluate. I won’t risk any player.
