He also referred to his four-match suspension: "I clearly knew there was no justification, but it's a testament to the personality of this group to play important matches." Additionally, he assured that "it was very difficult weeks, but well." "These animals got those matches through, and today it was my turn to help," he said. He also took stock of the "Pincha"'s year, which thanks to this title secured qualification for the 2026 Copa Libertadores: "The year for me was good. There is so much inconsistency in this football that it is not easy. We are on par with the great teams of Argentine football."
