the goalkeeper suffered a severe blow to the groin area after colliding with Andrés Herrera (he came out with a blow to the instep) and was very sore. The trauma also caused discomfort in the left adductor. This is why they will study medicine in Buenos Aires on Thursday.

According to what was leaked by the Chaco, before any official medical part was known, Armani felt a pain that did not allow him to do the leg movements wellespecially when jumping.

That’s why Gallardo has chosen to give the boy Ezequiel Centurión a chance and to rest Franco, thinking about what is coming: the match against Barracas Central next weekend and what appears beyond, the visit to Boca in La Bombonera, a fundamental duel thinking about the fight for the championship.

Armani remained the second half sitting on the bench with his legs stretched out, especially the left one – the sick one – to let her rest. And in the end he got up and crossed the field to greet his teammates.

It was the first time that Armani has not completed the 90 minutes in the 200 games he has been at River and his departure was basically a precaution but, in any case, they will follow him in the next few days and according to the studies give, It will be determined if will or will not arrive at the Superclásico on Sunday 11 at the Bombonera.

The man born in Casilda made his debut at the River on February 4, 2018, in a 2-0 win against Olympus.
