The Argentine celebrated his goal, but stressed that the team wants to win and that they will not give up in this battle against relegation.
He said in an interview with SporTV: “Happy to help the team. We couldn’t win, but we still have finals and we have to win. We came to win the game. Unfortunately, we couldn’t. We have to keep working. Friday, another final. Keep our heads up and keep going. The group will not give up. We have a team to win, save Santos. What we want is to stay in Series A.”
