In an interview after the match, the commander highlighted the importance of the result for the Ecuadorian people.
"This (the victory) means to the people. It's great to be able to present them (the Ecuadorian people) with this joy. We have to celebrate, celebrate", said the Argentine.
With the result, Ecuador ended the group stage with four points, in third place, and qualified for the knockout stage. Such numbers leave La Tri, provisionally, as the best third place.
Now, the Ecuadorians await the definition of the group stage to find out who they will face in the next phase.
