What was expected has become official and today the medical department of Boca Juniors I confirm red frames you have a muscle injury. The captain of Xeneize was unable to play the match against the Patronato after experiencing discomfort during the warm-up. Former Manchester United He suffers from a Grade II muscle injury in the soleus of his right leg and recovery will take about 2 to 3 weeks.
Without a doubt, not being able to count on Rojo will be a significant loss in an area that has proved weakened by the departures of Carlos Izquierdoz and Gastón Ávila. Yesterday there were those in charge of forming the central couple Carlos ZambranoHey Facundo Roncaglia, which had its rebirth with the blue jersey after arriving in this market. The team’s overall performance was not the best and Boca suffered a severe defeat against Patronato in Paraná.
After Rojo’s injury, coupled with Nicolás Figal’s absence for a few weeks, Hugo Ibarra has few options for central defense. The coach has only Zambrano, Roncaglia and Aranda available. It will be necessary to see if the duo played yesterday will be repeated for the next match or if the team will join Gabriele Aranda.
Yesterday’s hard defeat against Patronato once again left Boca World in check. Ibarra’s team will have to recover quickly from the blow and make ends meet against Platense – next Saturday from 21 -, because trying to get into the fight for the championship will be a sine qua non to not lose points.
