"Instead of panic, understand if that [losing games] happens, why it happened, and bring clarity. And when you analyse that and you accept that, you'll be better."
"Have some perspective on how difficult it is what we have done up to now. Then, feel that pain, feel that emotion and use it to be better and to improve."
"We were very clear in what happened, the reason why it happened, watching the game two times we didn't deserve to lose that match, but this is football and we get punished for things that are related to our identity."
"[We are] hungrier than ever, very excited and very, very motivated for tomorrow's game."
