Eliminated from the Copa Libertadores and the Copa Argentina, the Millionaire only has the local game this semester and wants to win it from start to finish.
The Professional League Cup was transformed to River not just a priority, but the only league it has for the second half of the year. The recent champion of the tournament, who has already been eliminated from the Copa Libertadores and the Copa Argentina, wants to take advantage of the squad he has put together with a view to international competition and repeat the local title.
The path of the millionaire begins against another team that was recently eliminated from the Libertadores: Argentinos Juniors, who will visit Diego Maradona de La Paternal on Sunday from 9:30 p.m..
THE RIVER HAS BEEN CALLED
After the painful elimination in Porto Alegre, on penalties against Inter, Martín Demichelis dismissed the team until Monday, the day they met again at River Camp, with bad news, as Enzo Pérez, Paulo Díaz and Leandro González Pirez They were defeated in Brazil: the midfielder with a back injury, the Chilean with a sprained knee and the remaining defender with metatarsals.
These three football players are in doubt, as are those who have the exit door open: Robert Rojas, Elías Gómez, Santiago Simón, José Paradela and Nicolás De La Cruz They are in full negotiation to succeed, for example, Lucas Beltrán, who is already in Italy and was announced as reinforcement for Fiorentina.
It should be remembered that the only ones who did not have a vacation Ramiro Funes Mori, Facundo Colidio and Manuel Lanziniwho ran a mini-preseason to keep up with their teammates.
THE FORMATION OF THE RIVER
Among the players who are in trouble, those who have left and those who could leave, what Demichelis can do at La Paternal is a mystery, although it is clear that with no double or triple competition, he will have to bet everything on the Cup of the LPF.
And the area that will raise the most doubts during this semester is that of the attacking midfielders, as it has a wide range that goes from Lanzini and Colidio like new faces, undisputed headlines like Boat or Cross if not sold, a historic shaft Nacho Fernandez or the reveal of the last part of the season, Pablo Solari. And if no surprise reinforcement arrives, Salomon Rondon and Miguel Borja They will fight to be the ‘9’ to replace Beltrán.
