The coach of River Plate, Martin Demichelisjoined the youth team today Claudio “Diablito” Echeverri to the training sessions of the professional team, but it will take a few days to define the team and those called up that on Saturday at 10 p.m. will play the semifinal of the Professional League Cup before Rosario Central in Córdoba.
Returning to work this afternoon at the Ezeiza facility, after Monday’s rest after achieving the victory against Belgrano on Sunday, the players completed physical and aerobic tasks and between tomorrow and the day after, the coach will carry out tactical work.
The novelty was the presence of Echeverri after his participation in the World Cup in the Under 17 category and it is expected that tomorrow the scorer of said tournament will also be added, Agustín Ruberto.
Demichelis, who will not have the Colombian striker Miguel Borja (he has a tear in his right adductor), can recover Milton Casco and Bruno Zuculini for the weekend, who were not in Córdoba due to synovitis.
Casco’s case is special because until the game against Instituto he was a starter, although after Enzo Díaz’s great game against Belgrano the question becomes whether he returns to the right back instead of Santiago Simón.
River, who suffered from Colombian Jaminton Campaz in the match that Rosario Central beat 3-1 on the penultimate date of the League Cup group, did not have good performances in that area of defense throughout the year.
Demichelis, who first rehearsed with Emanuel Mammana, then with Andrés Herrera, then with Casco and in this second semester with Simón, has to solve that problem if he wants to neutralize the great “rogue” forward.
As for the rest of the team, the coach was satisfied with the return of Rodrigo Aliendro to the middle zone with Enzo Pérez, therefore Manuel Lanzini would remain outside the team, passing Nicolás De la Cruz to the link zone.
Although the team will be known a couple of hours before the game and the coach will work on it in the next 48 hours, they could be the same 11 that started playing against Belgrano with the unknown mentioned on the team’s right side.
Thus the possible 11 would be: Franco Armani, Simón o Casco o Herrera, Leandro González Pírez, Paulo Díaz and Enzo Díaz; Enzo Pérez and Aliendro; Ignacio Fernández, Esequiel Barco and De la Cruz; Salomon Rondon.
The millionaire team will return to training tomorrow, on Thursday they will work the first shift of the day and on Friday they will do so in the afternoon and then travel to Córdoba.
