Despite generating multiple dangerous chances and constantly threatening the visitors' goal, Chivas was unable to translate its footballing superiority into goals, resulting in a 0-0 draw with a tough opponent like Tigres in the AP25 Matchday 1 fixture.
At the end of the match, Gabriel Milito spoke at a press conference and took the opportunity to highlight some aspects of Guadalajara's performance, as well as some individual performances.
Gabriel Milito's words after Chivas vs. Tigres
"I'm happy with the team's overall performance. We were up against a great opponent; in the first half, we neutralized them even though they had possession of the ball."
"It's a shame we didn't win, because we had some very clear chances."
"'Oso' gives us a lot of defensive balance, he has good judgment, he has a sense of positioning; that's important for his position. He played a very good game against América and today as well, he'll keep picking up the pace. I'm very happy because he wasn't in competitive form and when the team needed him most, he stepped up."
"We always try to play well, have control, and win games. We work to create many chances and score goals. We will continue to try to be stronger every day, and today we demonstrated that defensively."
"The effort was impeccable, the chances were there. We have to take less than the team deserved."
"We looked to consolidate defensively and then take the game to our opponents. We have good substitutes to attack and finish games."
"I want to highlight the work done by the people in charge of maintaining the pitch. The pitch was impeccable, so congratulations to them because it's very good."
"As for 'Hormiga', he has scored goals coming off the bench and has started other games. When he comes on, he gives us that freshness in attack and we are looking for options with him. He is an important player who is earning his minutes."
"Guti is an important loss for us, as is Piojo. I hope they both have a speedy recovery; time will tell how they progress."
"Mistakes are part of the game. Efraín is a player who is very successful in various phases of the game, so I know he must be feeling bad now, but I told him to stay calm because he played a good game. I want that kind of player."
