Boca needs to clarify doubts as quickly as possible after what was the 0-0 draw against Monagas by Libertadores Cup and he already thinks about his next rival: Columbus of Santa Fe. El Sabalero, last in the Professional League standings, seems to be the perfect opponent to reverse the moment of anxiety that the Ribera team is going through. That’s why, Mariano Herron gives the concentrate list for the Sunday. The detail that drew attention is the absence of Darío Benedetto, the starting nine.
In last Thursday’s game, Miguel Merentiel came on after 75 minutes in place of Pipa, who had had the clearest of the night with a shot that hit goalkeeper Orlando Mosquera’s left post. Benedetto left the field of play with a gesture of exhaustion and physically at the limit.
That is why the coaching staff evaluated him in the last practice in Ezeiza to define if he will be present on Sunday in the candy box. Finally, Herrón decided to preserve it for Wednesday’s classic against Saint Lawrence y Nicolas Orsini He is the one who itches in point to replace him in the starting lineup.
