River His dream began in the Copa Libertadores. From 9.30pm this Tuesday, those led by Martin Demichelis will open the curtain of group H against Deportivo Táchira of Venezuela. After a long and tortuous journey to the Pueblo Nuevo sports center, the millionaire will try to assert his power and hierarchy against an inferior rival on paper.
Ride the 1-0 defeat against Huracán which left them fourth in the League Cup, River will try to show a new image and recover from the blow by starting on the right foot in international territory. Considering the lackluster performance of Parque Patricios, a priori the coach’s plan is to introduce some variations into the eleven.
The first change will take a back seat and is, at the moment, the only one that works with certainty: Paolo Diazalready one hundred percent physically after resting last weekend (he reached the limit due to participation in the FIFA event), he will start instead of the young Daniel Zabala.
As for the rest of River’s eleven making their Libertadores debut, there is a great chance that Micho could lend a hand in midfield: Nicolás Fonseca could replace Rodrigo Villagra, while Claudio Echeverri adds numbers to replace Nacho Fernández or Rodrigo Aliendro. Likewise, the option that Pablo Solari comes in for Esequiel Barco to accompany Miguel Borja and thus gain greater offensive weight.
For its part, Deportivo Táchira, which comes to this event after an important 2-0 victory against the Metropolitanos which catapulted it to fifth place in the Venezuelan championship, will try to make its home team weigh and get what would be a historic victory in the Venezuelan championship.
