Why Alan Velasco’s return would coincide with the departure of Fernando Gago

Velasco appears in the team that Mariano Herrón will plant before TigreSunday from 18 in Victoria. And his presence is not accidental. After all, Boca made a very large investment for the steering wheel that had not only lost ownership with Fernando Gago; He didn’t even play a minute in the Superclassic.

In Riquelme’s log, that was one of the issues that pushed to fire the coach who had arrived on October 20 last year, casually to debut before the Matador of Victoria on the same stage of this weekend. The Velasco pass cost 10 million dollars and Gago could never shine.

And although it is true that it was marked by the prison wrong against Alianza Lima in phase 2 of the Copa Libertadores, that shot that Guillermo Vizcarra stopped and resulted in the elimination of the maximum continental tournament, then played again. However, he was losing ground until not being part of the initial formation.

With 12 games and no goal, Herrón will take him into account to play against Tigre. In the last two practices he started. First, in the position that feels most comfortable, free as an old hitch. Then, on the left. We will have to see if the side is closed and released, or is thrown out against the line, something that is not usually beneficial for his game, since he is a composter footballer.

The interim coach aligned Agustín Marchesín; Luis Advíncula, Rodrigo Battaglia, Red frames, Lautaro Blanco; Tomás Belmonte, Milton Delgado, Kevin Zenón; Velasco; Carlos Palacios y Miguel remediel.

So far, It would be the only change regarding the party that Boca fell in Núñez. The entrance of the former independent steering wheel and Dallas FC by Ayrton Costa. And a no less detail, of course: the dissolution of the controversial line of five that ended with the Gago cycle.

Con Edinson Cavani y Milton Giménez Injured, Merentiel – author of a goal against River – will continue to be the area reference. It is not yet clear what decision will make Herrón with Ander Herrerawho broke up a month ago and is in the final stage of his recovery.
