Néstor Vidrio spoke prior to facing Pachuca: "We have conceded a lot of goals, which does not leave us in a good position defensively, but the team knows that we are all, we have not been balanced, only against Xolos did we keep a clean sheet.

"We have improved a lot, but we have things to improve, it's going to be a one-on-one match and whoever is better focused will win the match, and have a balanced game of not conceding goals and scoring goals."

"I am very fond of Pachuca, they gave me an opportunity when I left Atlas, when I went to Olímpicos I was a Pachuca player and I was very happy there. Today I am with Mazatlán, obviously I want to win, but I am very fond of the institution".

"The sum of points was important, we were not satisfied with the defeat in Querétaro, because we wanted to win away and we have a long time without winning away."
