The news is of little use at the time of the “classics”. The winning streaks, the series of defeats and favoritism are left aside when facing this type of match, in which character and a correct strategy weigh more, added to good individual performances.
Today Racing clearly appears as more than Independent. This is supported by the points achieved (12 against 7), a greater qualitative and quantitative richness in their squad and an obviously more favorable situation in terms of football level.
Coach Fernando Gago seems to have “found” the team, after the whistles from the fans in the goalless debut in the Cilindro against Gimnasia, but everything improved little by little after the draw against River and the wins against Argentinos and Atlético Tucumán.
The operation evolved, it showed a more dynamic midfield, with a faster transition from defense to attack and with a goal (12 in the last five games).
Independiente is arming itself in the midst of clear austerity: coach Eduardo Domínguez, who replaced Julio César Falcioni, did not have a strong wallet to strengthen the team, and on the contrary, the club is going through a deep financial and institutional crisis.
Adding to that poor news that he had to get rid of two figures like Alan Velasco, his “jewel”, who emigrated to the MLS from the United States, and the scorer Silvio Romero, who chose to continue his career in Fortaleza in Brazil.
Statistics indicate that there are 23 wins ahead for “Red” after 212 classics, with 84 wins against 61 and 67 draws.
