Boca beat Talleres on penalties this Sunday and reached the semifinals of the Argentine Cup, where they will play against Estudiantes. In one of the many goal situations that Edinson Cavani missed, Valentín Barco demanded a short pass from the forward and when he did not give it to him, he scolded him in the face and made the Uruguayan angry. And, after the game, Colo spoke out about it.

“Nothing, it’s just feverishness of the moment. I got angry because he didn’t pass it to me and he got angry because… it’s clear, isn’t it? It’s part of football. Then we fixed ourselves and now we are all happy,” explained the native of May 25.

The tense exchange between Valentín Barco and Edinson Cavani: complaint and response to the screams
It all happened in the last minute of the first half, when the Córdoba team was winning 1-0. Cavani had a ball left as he entered the area and took a shot that hit a defender. He immediately grabbed the rebound and shot again, but his attempt went well over the crossbar.
Barco, who was alone in the crescent, soon complained vehemently to the Uruguayan. The young man understood that he was in a better position to define and he let him know.
Cavani responded to Colo with an angry gesture and several shouts. But the situation stayed there: like a momentary dispute between two teammates on the field.
Cavani would have revenge in the second half. Ten minutes into the match they gave him a penalty which he later converted into a goal to make it 1-1.
Colo Barco talked about his way of kicking penalties in Boca
“I was calm to kick. I try not to think about it too much, I relax when I go to kick, I’m calm,” he explained after being consulted in Tyc Sports.
“I wait to see if it moves or not. I waited (for Guido Herrera), he moved and I chose the other side. But I’m happy for the group and we’re going for everything.” And, in that sense, he remarked: “I decide the place at the moment, at the last second,” said Colo.
