The real reason why Battaglia removed Villa, Cardona and Zambrano from the team

Then, Battle, who had included them as starters on Sunday’s roster, before the match in La Bombonera was suspended due to rain, and also in Monday’s practice, chose to replace them.

Lisandro López, Exequiel Zeballos and Eduardo Salvio were the ones who entered the team, and even the last two then came out when Battle arranged the income in the second half of Cardona and Villa, which gave another rhythm to the attack of “Xeneize”.

In fact, it was not noticed on the playing field that they were affected by gastric discomfort as detailed Battle at the press conference after 0-0 against Newell’s.

“The three changes were the product of a bad condition that all three had, an intoxication that they had. Zambrano did not directly go out to warm up, he stayed on the substitute bench, he felt very bad. Edwin (Cardona) and Villa They made a huge effort, the truth is that we need them. At the time they were there, they made a great effort to help the team. The sheet the other day is true included them three, but this morning we met this situation and we had to rethink the party in another way “, said the coach, justifying his absences.

And, in that sense, he also crossed the rumors about a fight in training between Cardona and Agustin Almendra, who did maintain his place as a starter in the midfield of Boca.

“That is a lie, I completely deny it. Nothing to do. A lot of things are installed, sometimes you have to listen to everything that if we go out to clarify everything, you cannot live. The reality is that they made a great effort both Villa like Cardona for coming in and helping in the minutes they were on the court. Carlos (Zambrano) unfortunately did not feel well enough to participate. We are all trying to do our best to qualify Boca for the Copa (Libertadores) “, assured Battle.

The “Xeneize” expects this Wednesday a victory of Cordoba workshops in view of Godoy Cruz for the semifinal of the Argentina Cup to ensure your classification to the Liberators cup (although in the preliminary playoff phase) without having the obligation to win that title, next Wednesday, December 8.
