Braian Romero cut two consecutive victories: his own and that of the River, after 293 minutes without a goal

Braian Romero’s goal 15 minutes into the first half ended the River’s goalless drought of 293 minutes overall and 318 minutes for local tournaments. In addition, the forward also put an end to a personal streak, as he hasn’t scored since March 13 when he scored Gimnasia at the Monumental. “I’m happy. Everyone was waiting for my goal. They are the strikers’ series. Sometimes you push him under the arch and he doesn’t enter and other times he hits you everywhere and enters. I needed to stop the series. Gallardo complimented me. Romero said at the end of the match. And he added: “With Julián (Álvarez) we play a lot together, we understand each other and we know each other’s movements”.

The striker explained: “Everyone was happy with the goal, the other day we had a good chat. My teammates like to share my happiness, and in training like them I give everything.” Later, on the analysis of the match, he added: “That’s why at the beginning it was difficult for us, and sometimes we weren’t well, but today everyone came in. Let’s hope this is a kick to show what we mean.”
