Coach Angel Cappa held a post-game conference after another victory at the Monumental Stadium, and he talked about the way the players turned the game around. Additionally, he praised Ariel Ortega, Diego Buonanotte, Paulo Ferrari and Alexis Ferrero.
“I liked how the team responded today, using football. They did not get desperate, did not throw random center lobbies, the continued to play as they were playing, and confiding that it was the best way to reach a goal. That, to me, is very positive because it’s what I want, “said Coach Cappa.
“I was very calm because when we were losing, the fans were going crazy in the stands. That means great support for the style of football we were developing, the fans did not grow impatient and were enjoying the game that these players were doing,” added Coach Cappa.
About what he wants in River’s football, he said: “I’m beginning to tie in with the style that River has had for a lifetime. We are making this style respond; trying to keep it true. Just look at how the fans encouraged us in an extraordinary way, even when we were losing. That’s a compliment for me, because to get the fans’ liking is not easy. “
Then it was time for praising his players: “Ferrari did a superb job and played a huge game. Alexis Ferrero’s game was also wonderful. Of Ortega, you can say that he ‘dusted off the instruction manual’ and used it on the pitch. He used the great football manual. Buonanotte moved with absolute freedom, and much more. He chose the spot to finish the match, and only high-level players can do this.”
