“I honestly think that this is a perfect scenario for Mexican football. We play away from home against the host team with a lot of support from their fans and fighting for qualification.
We’ll need to control the game and to prove to ourselves that we can compete under such difficult circumstances. If we can do it, we’ll be taking a step forward. We want to show that we can do it against any opponent, regardless of its style.”
– Juan Carlos Osorio, Mexico.
