When Jorge Almiron returned to Lanús at the beginning of 2022, after an irregular trip to Elche in Spain, he still carried in his curriculum vitae the mark of being the coach with the most titles in Grana’s centenary history, with three Olympic laps in just eight months. Also for placing the first and only chance in the life (of the club and its) institution in the final of Libertadores Cup.

DT has found a squad that, except for a few asterisks (Lautaro Acosta, Nicholas Pasquini at Joseph Sandto name the main), I know only from videos and good references from Maxi Velazquez, his new aide-de-camp, was recently closely associated with the Lower Division. With the surprise appearance of the center forward from Corrientes Jose Manuel LopezFor example, he was surprised. More than the duo that El Flaco did with his compatriot Pepe.

In fact, at the first press conference, he was asked if his successful way of playing (such as allowing him to beat San Lorenzo 4-0 in the final of the 2016 Transition tournament) allowed a doble 9.

And the answer, with the sum of the goals at hand, is an intimate ‘course’. Although the words were blown away. Lanús ’top scorer in his 107 years of life was never fulfilled in DT’s plans. And this Saturday, at Amalfitani, 1-3 against Velez ended up lifting the veil on that thing, up to that point Sand’s younger brother exploded on social media.

So far this year, José -41 years old-, although he participated in eight dates -four as a starter- of the League Cup (he was absent in the 5-0 win over Cambaceres for the Argentine Cup), he barely made it to a How many minutes: the whole second half against Huracán, 67 ‘against Barracas (he scored one goal at the time), 90’ against Estudiantes, the whole extra against Tigre, 86 ‘against Arsenal, 21’ against Colón, 20 ‘against Banfield and … the two minutes against Fortín. In fact, only the referee was included (after warming up for about an hour) Andres Merlos Lucas Pratto’s final goal was confirmed to close the game and leave Garnet the last place in Zone B.

Beyond the professionalism of the Mesopotamian striker, social networks showed their dissatisfaction with ignoring the garnet Top Scorer of all time. However, of all the voices that were read, there was one particularly particular call of attention. Without losing the tone of most of the fans, upon the publication of Lanús ’official account, a particular letter was read that defended 9 and punished DT. “2 minutes ?? You’re obviously almiron !! Come play with me brother, was seen. And attention: that brother is not a fixed phrase. This is completely literal. The signer was Darío Sand, the scorer’s brother …

Darío Sand made the Inferiores on the River and came to save a few games on the Reserve until he was released. From there he had steps with Uruguay’s Rampla Juniors (he didn’t play), Huracán de Tres Arroyos, Deportivo Roca, Libertad de Sunchales, Gimnasia y Tiro, and Agropecuario, until signing with San Martín de Tucumán, one of the that team is doing better at First National, and where he has scored just five goals in eight games.
