From “best international reinforcement in history” to victim of memes: what’s wrong with Cavani?

In case of Edinson Cavani keeps the world of Boca in suspense. Be the “best international reinforcement in history”according to Juan Román Riquelme, he became a victim of memes on social networks. He hasn’t scored a goal for 128 days, 466 minutes to be precise, and the two wasted situations against Lanús moved everyone and everyone. One psychic says he did “bullshit”. And the Granata goalkeeper also sent him a message of encouragement after the match.

On the eve of the Superclásico, then, there is an issue that is too mature and another that has to do more with the enthusiasm of the fans than with this sporting crisis that the Uruguayan star is going through. What happens to And? Will he be revealed against River?

Cavani’s last cry was against Talleres, on 15 October, for the Argentine Cup. And it was a penalty. In 19 games played in the blue and gold shirt, the Salto-born striker barely managed to score three goals. After weak performance against SarmientoOn February 1, he suffered a strain on the back of his left leg. He was out of competition for 17 days, He came on in the second half against Lanús and made two mistakes in front of goal. The first, a header. The second, a shot on the post. And even though I was offside, it was incredible.

Lucas Acosta hugged him, gave him a kiss and then told what he whispered in his ear. “I told him Sunday would be rainy. I’m not a Boca fan or anything like that, but I told him because I watch all the matches and I understand that we should enjoy his career. I told him from the bottom of my heart for the great player and the great professional that he is,” said the Lanús goalkeeper.

George Armas, the astrologer and Boca fan who worked with Jorge Almirónit is certain that Cavani was the victim of a gualicho. “In the classic let’s break the crap they did to you, Edi Querido! “We have faith in you”registered in his X account.

AND He said he will take care of unblocking the player who turned 37 last week. He also invited Boca fans to continue this process with him. “The materials are simple: ground cinnamon, sugar of any color, a long black candle and a photo of And. “We will work with these materials and then the rest will be up to us,” she wrote.

When he came on in the 12th minute of the second half, replacing Lucas Janson, he moved as area reference and Miguel Merentiel dropped back a few metres. Today Cavani would not start. In the last Superclásico, played at the Bombonera with River’s 2-0 victory, a goal was disallowed for offside.

The truth is Cavani has 6 big wasted chances, according to Sofascore records, one less than Facundo Colidio. The difference is that the Uruguayan played 2 of the 6 La Liga Cup matches while the River forward played 5 matches and scored two goals. And He is with wet powder, despite his extraordinary career totaling 437 screams, the most in Europe’s major championships.
