Eduardo Fentanes spoke prior to this important match: "I feel very good. I have been with Santos for three and a half years, almost five years with Grupo Orlegi, I have been in different positions, focused on doing my best. I am grateful to the group, to the Club, for the opportunity they have given me and I live it well, with pleasure, I do it with a lot of passion. It's been several years of playing in the middle, I'm back to enjoying myself on the field, every game, the context, I'm grateful because they gave me the opportunity in different positions". 

"The connection was great. On Sunday I was focused on what was being done on the field and one cannot perceive everything, but there were seven or more waves and I was able to realize it and you can feel it, you can perceive that energy; it is good that what the team does, the players, the connection with the fans, hopefully there will be more fans at the end of the tournament, it will be important to be able to qualify and be there. They have real weight in our favor and are sure to have an impact". He emphasized that this communion is mutually nourishing and when the team needs the fans, they are there, so they will try to maintain this connection.
