After the 2-2 draw against the LA Galaxy, which left Guadalajara out of the Leagues Cup 2024, Fernando Gago shared his analysis and conclusions on the team's performance in their two matches in the bi-national competition. The tactician acknowledged that the team must learn from this situation and redouble its efforts to shake off this bitter pill before resuming Liga MX activity.
"We dominated the match, we generated many situations. I even think we had six shots inside the six-yard box, something that is very difficult to achieve. We pressed and recovered many balls in the high area".
"We did everything to win the match, we deserved it but the result was different and we were out of the competition."
"It says a lot how we approached the match and how we played. The fans play with sentiment and want to be champions in all the tournaments in which we participate and I agree with them."
"For me in sports there is no such word as failure, imagine that we all have the desire to win and grow in life. This is about trying again and moving forward, this from someone who was injured 5 times in his career".
"I lost a Copa America Final, a Libertadores Final, a Champions League Semi-Final and a World Cup Final and I don't consider myself a failure, on the contrary. I learned a lot from all of that."
"We must improve our decision making and execution. A little while ago I was talking about right and wrong, they had 2 situations and they were goals, we had 20 and we scored 2".
"I can't explain how Beltrán's and Alvarado's didn't go in. If you are given the choice of someone to have a ball inside the area, you will say Alvarado, today it didn't go in".
"This defeat hurts and it's time to get up and keep trying".
