After the game, Fran was named man-of-the-match and shared his thoughts on the team's performance. He said, "I'm happy not only because we've advanced to the next round and I've received the MVP award, but also because of the team's overall performance.

When asked about his recent form, Fran mentioned that he's feeling confident due to regular game time and the trust of his coach and teammates.

Things are clearer now, and the more I can do for the team, the better."
Regarding his goal, Fran shared his thought process. He said, "I saw that it was a move where we stole the ball in the final third. The ball came in from the right wing, and Gonzalo and Vini were making runs. I made a quick burst to get to the penalty spot, and the ball came to me. I had the chance to shoot, and I was delighted to score."
Fran also expressed admiration for his teammate Gonzalo, who has been scoring many goals for the team. He said, "I'm not lucky enough to score as many goals as Gonzalo, but I'm happy to help the team in any way I can."
