Ortiz defended his decision to play with a largely reserve squad, emphasizing that the team functions as a unit. "We are a team, I don't see it that way, those who are there, those who come in, those who stay, we are a team and that's what was seen," he asserted, refusing to assign blame to the substitute players for the loss.

The coach acknowledged that losing is never ideal but stressed the importance of the lessons learned. "Obviously, nobody likes to lose, but I personally take away conclusions, as a coach, from what I saw in the game. Then we will analyze, correct, and yes, we have Monday at home, with our people, to win, qualify, and move forward," he concluded.
