Ibarra at the crossroads to support Vázquez’s moment or respect Benedict’s place for the Boca final against Atlético Tucumán

Hugo Ibarra will have a long week of work and training to prepare for Sunday’s match against the leader Atletico Tucumána game that in the intimacy of the club feels like the last chance to try to fight for the Professional League, a title that seems to invite him more Mouth of what Boca does to look for it. In this context, the TD will have the entire squad available, since without injuries or penalties. Which team will play?

Florencio Varela’s late goal, in another bad game for the team, places him at Luis Vazquez in another situation. It is that the boy has cut a long series of games without scoring and has also restored confidence in one of the few chances he has had. Time to keep him for the game with the Tucumans?

Dario Benedetto and come back. And after the sanction you received for your crossing Carlos Zambrano could have the opportunity to play again in the Bombonera, with the Boca crowd. emotionally, a two dates of the Superclásico with River, everyone thinks they have to get it back. What’s the best for him? Starting as a starter and playing against the clock if he doesn’t transform or starting on the bench and then getting into the game?

Injuries, the emotional load of that series against Corinthians in which he seemed stuck, the declarations that confessed the economic claim, the squad’s sidelong glance for that and the drought of the goals transformed him into a dull and annoying scorer. Even with few options to convert beyond the missed penalty against Talleres.

Vázquez’s sacrifice (and fatigue) is greater. And he proved it against Estudiantes and Racing, while not converting. Benedetto’s technique and quality it is much larger than that of Vázquez. So what do you do? Facing the end of the season (always with the youth forward in the crosshairs of the European teams behind) Boca needs to have its two full center-forwards. And precisely against Defense and Justice it seemed to recover a portion.

In the football tests of the week the mystery will be solved, even if Benedetto is ahead. Because the punishment for the fight in the Avellaneda tunnel has left him exposed and he has the opportunity to demonstrate his commitment with the rest of his teammates and also with Boca on the pitch. Although for Pipa the times have shortened: with Vázquez on the bench it is time to reconnect quickly with the net.

What about a double 9? For now Ibarra only used it at La Paternal against Argentinos Juniors and it didn’t work. That night there were Orsini and Vázquez. Are Benedict and Vázquez complementary? It happens that to play from the beginning you would have to leave Sebastiano Villatoday the player with the greatest imbalance in the offensive block.

With everyone available, it remains to be seen whether the manager will also return the property to Zambrano and with whom he would form a central duo. With Marcos Rojo, already recovered? Or with Nicolás Figal, with good returns? All doubts that Ibarra will have to answer with the days. The pointer, on the horizon. And River, of course.
