In the coach’s opinion, the result was important for Palmeiras, who remained isolated at the top of the group, with ten points, and closer to the standings.
– My concern here was to come out with a positive result, draw or victory. In the Libertadores you don’t always play at the ideal level, you play for the result. And the result was very important, the tie brought us closer to qualifying. We knew we were going to find a tough opponent, who plays intense football, who was looking for victory. It was a good draw for us and for them. We had one more point. Libertadores, if they open up too much, end up on the court with defeat – he analyzed.

At the quick press conference at the Defensores del Chaco stadium, Luxembourg responded to questions sent by some Brazilian journalists. And he was irritated when asked about Palmeiras’ need for improvement and if the team could have attacked more.
According to the coach, it is necessary to assess the result obtained in Paraguay and the delivery of the players.
– I would like to understand, in a Copa Libertadores, with the surrender of the team, in a difficult match like the Guaraní here, talking about what the team lacked? The team gave up, we got an important tie for qualifying. I don’t know where something was missing. We may have to win every Libertadores game. First is to classify and then see how it will happen.
– From the questions, it seems we lost the game. All the players and the commission are satisfied because we have come close to qualifying, the question is always that something is missing.
Luxa also saw an excessive burden on Palmeiras.
– What I can do? If they think something is missing, they should leave it somewhere. We are close to qualifying. There are teams that are not close to that. It is a bit exaggerated in the collection, it is a Libertadores, a draw here against the strong Guarani team, it is a great result. Who does not want to recognize this does not want to recognize the productivity of Palmeiras within the Libertadores – he added.
With the result, Palmeiras reached 10 points, three more than Guaraní. Bolívar, Verdão’s next rival, is third with four. The Tiger is the lantern, with only one.
