Nicolás Larcamón spoke after the loss to Pachuca: "We were upset with the way the match unfolded, we knew that we were coming to one of the most demanding matches of the tournament. It is not for nothing that Pachuca is in the position it is in and at home with the mitigating factor of having seven important players missing, which we knew would put us in a demanding match and I am proud of the way in which the team played the same way. We are entering a stage where we can't give away details and be decisive".

"We guaranteed identity, today Puebla stood up against the leader with seven absentees with starting player characteristics, on the field there were players who have less than two or three games in the first division and we played as equals, we competed and tried and subdued the rival and generated that the rival ended up making time."

"The pressure of a team that is fighting for things that are of a privileged nature, today we are competing to get into the four teams that go directly to the Liguilla, so we take on the challenge and recognize how a very competitive and ambitious group and pressure of the work itself."
