Just as the Academy hopes that the 2-0 victory over Atlético Tucumán has marked the beginning of a good run, personally Leonel Miranda is excited that this Sunday a new stage has begun for him in Racing. After six games, Lolo returned to play at the Academy. It was just a little while, but important because he needed a lot to enter the scene after discomfort in his foot that had him abused and had caused him concern.
The steering wheel added minutes for the first time in Fernando Gago’s cycle. He entered at 32 minutes of the second half to replace Matías Rojas to take care of the ball. And while he didn’t have much of a stake in the game, he felt good physically. His previous match played dated from September 27, when he entered the final stage (at 25 ‘, by Tomás Chancalay) in the 2-0 defeat against Argentinos Juniors, at La Paternal, with Claudio Úbeda as coach.
In that commitment against the Bug, Miranda again suffered ailments in that left foot, where her hallux toe and number two had been misplaced due to an unnatural movement. Even as a result, the possibility of having it operated was considered. But he put a dribble on the scalpel thanks to the kinesiology work he carried out.
The word of Lolo Miranda after joining Racing against Atlético Tucumán
“Very happy to play again and for the victory, band. We are all together”, published Lolo in an Instagram story (@lolomirandaok), with an image of the dressing room in Tucumán in which he appears accompanied by Gabriel Arias, Eugenio Mena, Juan Cáceres, Iván Pillud, Javier Correa Ignacio Piatti and Carlos Alcaraz.
According to what they told this portal, Miranda has been leaving a very good impression on Gago for what he does in training and, if he continues like this, from one moment to another he could win ownership. At the very least, be the first replacement option for Pintita in the midfield.
