When I was a kid, there were some people around me who were a bad influence. When I met my girlfriend Sofia, who is now my wife, I think it all changed. She was very important for me, because she steered me back on to the path I wanted to be on.
I think the people who really know who Luis is are the people who are by my side, who have always been by my side.
As a minimum we have to get to the second round. After that, a ton of other goals will open up. This is what we want the people to understand.
I think all the bad things I have been through are in the past. I believe I am on the right path now, dealing with the people who can help me, the right kind of people.
My wife says that if people reach conclusions as to what I am like based on what they see from me on the pitch they would say I am a guy who is always annoyed, always in a bad mood, they'd say what must it be like to live with me. There are two of me, two different people.
People ask, 'How can you let a defeat hurt you so much?' But it comes back to the effort you have put into your career as a youngster.
There are only three million people in Uruguay, but there is such hunger for glory: you'll do anything to make it; you have that extra desire to run, to suffer. I can't explain our success, but I think that's a reason.
There are people who criticise me, and that's normal because of the way I am on the pitch. I get angry, I get tense.
Everything you see comes from inside. People don't see it but inside the dressing room we laugh and joke a lot so it's not just for the cameras. It's the way things are off the pitch too. We are happy for each other, it is all natural.
I still sleep soundly every night. I'm not worried about everything people say.
