The Cyclone secured a win by the slimmest margin in its last two matches and now faces Tatengue, a side that has yet to post three points, with a hopeful return looming on the horizon.
San Lorenzo does not dazzle, yet it still records victories, and its supporters celebrate. Under Reuben Dario Insua, who is increasingly adored in Boedo, the club has won three of its four outings, the latest a road victory over Sarmiento. They sit three points behind league leader Lanús, the same team that handed them their only defeat at the start of the 2023 Professional League season. [Goal]
The Cyclone’s next test is Unión, a side that could not celebrate in the Santa Fe derby against Colón and, after a 1-1 draw, remains one of six teams in the title race without a win yet. The clash is scheduled for Saturday, February 25 at 5 p.m. at the Nuevo Gasómetro. [Goal]
THE CALL OF SAN LORENZO
The week began on Tuesday, shortly after the Junín victory, with encouraging news for Gallego: Agustín Giay has resumed normal activity after weeks out with an ankle injury suffered during the Sudamericano Sub 20. While he remains in football development, there is a chance he could be called up for the tournament for the first time. [Goal]
Beyond that, the squad has not recorded suspensions or injuries, so the list of available players should mirror that of the previous matchday. [Goal]
THE FORMATION OF SAN LORENZO VS. UNION
Besides the win, Insúa was not fully satisfied with the team’s performance, which endured shocks at various moments in the game against Verde. As a result, he decided to experiment at the week’s first session by introducing Gonzalo Luján, while considering two players who might depart the squad: Nahuel Barrios and Ezequiel Cerutti. If the latter leaves, the younger winger could take on a wider role. [Goal]
Furthermore, Batalla will remain in goal, Gattoni will return to the Gasómetro following the controversy over his sale to Sevilla, and La Roca Sánchez will continue as the holding midfielder. [Goal]
Thus, the probable starting eleven: August Batalla; Federico Gattoni, Rafael Pérez, Gastón Hernández; Gonzalo Luján, Jalil Elías, Carlos Sánchez, Malcolm Braida; Nahuel Barrios or Ezequiel Cerutti, Andrés Vombergar and Adam Bareiro. [Goal]
