El Rojo makes its entry in the round of 32, facing Águilas, a team that competes in Federal A and has barely held the group together for three seasons.
Independiente faces Bolivar City in a clash from the round of 32 of the 2023 Argentine Cup. Played at the La Plata stadium, the encounter sees Red aiming to snap a winless streak that cost Leandro Stillitano his position, against a rival tackling the most significant challenge in its brief history.
Independiente arrives on a seven-match winless run, following a victory over Talleres in the opening match of the year. With Pedro Monzón serving as interim coach, the Avellaneda club enters a competition that has historically proven difficult, never having reached the quarterfinals.
Águilas, on the other hand, will participate in the tournament for the first time in their history. Founded in 2002 by Marcelo Tinelli to compete in the National Volleyball League, the Buenos Aires squad only began playing football in 2020 and reached Federal A just two years later.
