The heartbreaking victory against Atlético Tucumán to put together the second consecutive victory and reach 6 games without emotional crashes Mouth. Even if she was Hugo Ibarra who anesthetized the expectations in front of a league that still has him far from the top (6 points) and with teams above. No urgency for a Scudetto (he has already won the League Cup in 2022) or for a ticket to the Libertadores in 2023 (he has already ensured it) The walk of Boca will be to find solidity, certainties and reinforce concepts, evaluate surnames and explore alternatives for later. And the classic, of course. The river is always a big target.
For the latter Alan Varela, Advincula and Pol Fernandez they looked for the yellow cards and avoid playing against it Columbus in Santa Fe but yes first River. Almost a declaration of principles of objectives to be traced. If it had been the Olympic round immediately, the match against Colón would have been played with the best pieces. But everyone thinks of a horizon that is further away than near.
In that scenario, what took the voice was red frames, who has already left the muscle injury behind and was ready to return to Atlético Tucumán. Why didn’t you do it? In order not to stretch a leg too much that made him mistreat throughout 2021. But the captain and leader of the locker room (he was in front of Izquierdoz’s departure) has recovered and will have minutes of competition against Colón to arrive with some classic shots. He took the opportunity to clarify rumors and versions that spoke of his leaving the club, just in a week crossed by the bad news of Sebastian Villa’s injury and also the confirmation of the stay of Luis Vazquez and Aaron Molinas in the club.
“I have a contract with Boca for an extra year. Nobody talked to me and I didn’t call anyone. Things came up on social networks but I have no offers of anything, I am happy to be in Boca and to think that I am here. I have a bond until December 2023 and I am having fun and am happy, “he told the club’s official website amid the alleged decisions on his departure at the end of this competition.” This time I worked from the outside. I went back to playing football and putting my shirt back on, which is the thing I love the most. ” It’s easy. When things are made up it’s complicated, but you can’t even go out every 5 minutes to deny things. “
Rojo (55 games and 6 goals for the club) knows the great goal he has ahead of him. Taking charge of the Boca dressing room is not an easy task (now he is supported by Fabra and Pol Fernández) but he accepted. “Since he arrives I notice a lot in the boys because social media do everything in the media. It is difficult to stay focused on what needs to be done. The rest must be put aside and mentalized. We are in a club and in a property that has nothing to envy to the best. European venues. What Boca is doing in Ezeiza is incredible and for our comfort we have to appreciate it. I am very happy with this role I have in the team, it is very I grew up watching Boca with my old woman, seeing great captains and great players with this shirt who don’t know what it is, “he confessed.
Having Rojo for what’s to come (a head to head against Quilmes or Deportivo Madryn and a possible Superclásico in Copa Argentina, in the semifinals) and facing the backbone next year is a vision that everyone has in the club. With which central defense partner? Will it be Nicolás Figal, more and more rooted? Will Carlos Zambrano, of the national team, continue but with serious mistakes? Will another central defender arrive by 2023? For now, Red is here to accompany anyone. And he goes back to Colón to get to the River as everything Boca needs.
The list of concentrates, with several young people
This Friday, Boca released the list of concentrates that Hugo Ibarra has put together to travel to Santa Fe with some surprises. The coach included Maxi Zalazar and Mauricio Benitez to the delegation, which hopes to make its debut in the First Division at the Elephant Cemetery. Both are figures of the Reserve that Ibarra led and which is now under the command of Mariano Herrón.
Zalazar, 21, returned to Boca after going on loan from Internacional de Porto Alegre and distinguished himself several weeks ago with four goals against Rosario Central in the 6-0.
Benítez, meanwhile, is a midfielder with good punch and physical strength. In addition, Nicolás Orsini returns to the call and Brandon Cortes -He had already made his debut and had entered before Defense and Justice- will continue in the first bench.
