LIBERATORS CUP
The Uruguayan midfielder did not recover from the hard blow received against Unión and will not be part of the Millionaire’s delegation to face The Strongest.
River wants to start off on the right foot road in the Copa Libertadores. Next Tuesday from 7:00 p.m. they will face The Strongest for the first date of Group D, the meeting will be at the Hernando Siles de La Paz. The Millionaire knows that it is a complicated scenario due to the altitude, but with the results he has been having, he can be excited about returning to Buenos Aires with the three points.
“/>Martín Demichelis’s decision was to arrive in La Paz the same day of the game, although River will travel to Bolivia this Monday and will do so to Santa Cruz de la Sierra, a city that remains on the plain and in which the millionaire delegation will not suffer the consequences of the height. It is a more than valid strategy considering spending as little time as possible in La Paz, the intention is to arrive in the Bolivian capital about four hours before the game.
Finally, Nicolás De La Cruz will not travel with the delegation since this Monday he trained separately and the club announced that “he has an inflammatory process secondary to the trauma to his right knee suffered in the match against Unión“. It should be noted that the Uruguayan has just been off the pitch for a few weeks due to synovitis in his knee, and in the duel last Friday against Unión he suffered a severe blow. Coming out of it ice was placed on the substitute bench.
How would you form River?
Martín Demichelis still did not give clues regarding the team he could put up against The Strongest but everything indicates that it will be the best he has, so for the Libertadores debut they would go out on the field: Franco Armani; Milton Casco, Leandro Gonzalez, Paulo Diaz, Enzo Diaz, Enzo Perez, Augustin Palavecino, Rodrigo Aliendro, Ignacio Fernandez, Jose Paradela; Lucas Beltran.
