I thought the referee was pernickety, ... He didn't influence the result but giving us so many yellow and red cards upset the players psychologically.

But we tried our best. We had a very difficult competition, five very tough games in 10-12 days.

He spent the whole game calling me a 'lousy foreigner' and saying I wouldn't finish the match, ... We Argentines have to worry not only about the game but also about the refereeing.

We controlled the ball and deserved to qualify because we played better than River.

I would like to thank my coach for believing in me,

I wear what Nike gives me without any problems.
