Mauricio responded: "I am so happy with his performance, he was very good but you can be involved because we suffered a lot of attempts at our goal. That sometimes happens as a centre-back.
"I know how he’s feeling because I was in his position 15, 20 years ago and sometimes I was involved in the same situations. He was always focused on the game and I think it was a fantastic performance."
PEOPLE MAY TALK ABOUT THESE (PENALTY) ACTIONS BUT FOR ME, HE WAS ONE OF THE BEST PLAYERS ON THE PITCH

Skipper Hugo felt Juan was unlucky with the penalty decisions. He said: "I think he played fantastically. Every time he’s had the chance to show his quality, he's done it well. He did it three days ago against West Ham and again today.
"He was a bit unlucky. He’s an honest player, always tries to win challenges and a young player who will learn about those situations. People may talk about these actions but for me, he was one of the best players on the pitch."

Juan's fellow Argentine and goalscorer Erik added: "He was a bit angry because but I told him ‘Juan, relax, you did an amazing’. For me, he had an amazing game.
"It’s so difficult when you haven’t played for a long time and he’s played two games in three days. I’m so happy for him because he’s starting to show his quality and I told him, for me, tonight he was amazing. The penalties... sometimes the defenders are there and have to defend and he was unlucky."
