The wait is over. 86 days after the historic consecration of Patronage At the Malvinas Argentinas stadium in Mendoza, the Argentine Cup returns this Tuesday with the start of the eleventh edition. Rojinegro, who went down to the first national team, is the protagonist of the opening match against Gimnasia y Tiro de Salta, of the Federal A.
The match takes place at Brigadier General Estanislao López de Colón Stadium in Santa Fe and is broadcast by TyC Sports. The winner of the inaugural crossover will await the outcome of Argentinos Juniors – Deportivo Armenio to meet his next rival.
The responsibility to defend the title came with a major makeover on the Board of Trustees. Beyond the incentive that represents the historic opportunity to play in the Copa Libertadores, the Board of Trustees has failed to support the champion coach Facundo Sava and not even the backbone made up of Facundo Altamirano, Carlos Quintana, Nicolás Castro and Marcelo Estigarribia , who have completed their respective loans.
The relegation of category was a trigger that had a greater weight in the decision and generated the replacement of pieces that will include, on the substitute bench, Walter Otta. The architect of the historic campaign that took Deportivo Morón to the semi-finals of the supplementary competition in 2017, will try to maintain the prominence held by Rojinegro in his last performances.
As for the players, the arrivals of Julio Salvá, Cristian González, Nicolás Domingo, Nazareno Solís and Enzo Díaz stand out in the different sectors of the playing field.
For its part, Gimnasia y Tiro de Salta, fifth in the North zone of the Torneo Federal, has the return as DT of Rubén Darío Forestello, who had led the team to the final for promotion in 2021 (they fell to Chaco For Ever) . .
The Register has added hierarchical reinforcements that allow it to make the necessary leap in quality in the double competition. In addition to the emotional value that eliminating the defending champion from the federal challenge would represent, a victory over Patronato would make him the second representative of Salta to advance to the round of 16.
The only one so far has been Juventud Antoniana, who beat Tigre 1-0 in the 2012-13 season with a memorable finish from Enrique Triverio.
