“It was a very physical game but we got through, and that is the most important thing.
“It was a game we had controlled, we could have killed it off.
“These are amazing feelings, I am really happy to share their beautiful moment with the fans.
“I know how much effort they have put into coming here and I know the whole of Argentina wants to be here. The bonds, the union we have is something beautiful.
“It is unbelievable the fans’ passion, energy and joy. It is unbelievable. They are living it from inside and I see how they suffer and enjoy it. That is spectacular. They are excited, as all Argentinians are.
“We took a little step and now a harder one is coming.”
