Gallardo requested that Mastantuono and Subiabre later join the Sub-20: AFA’s response

While River He prepares to face Riestra on Saturday at Bajo Flores for the Opening Tournament, Marcelo Gallardo He also thinks later and wants to shoot his young figures. That is why from the institution of Núñez there was an order to the AFA so that Franco Mastantuono and Ian Subiabre They can join the training of the Sub-20 team only on Thursday 20 and not on Monday 17, when they were summoned by the coach of the Argentine youth team Diego pleasant. And the Argentine football mother gave an answer.

In this way, the doll can have both young people for the match against Ciudad Bolívar, for the 32nd finals of the Argentine Cup, which will be played on Wednesday 19 at 21.15 at the single mother stadium of cities in Santiago del Estero.

And so, there will not be a major bleeding of soccer players since there are three players summoned to their major selections for the dates of South American qualifiers. They are Gonzalo Montiel and Germán Pezzella in Argentina and Paulo Díaz in Chile. In addition, the millionaire has lower ones since they are in the process of recovering lesions Sebastián Driussi, Matías Rojas and Lucas Martínez Quarta.

In that sense, unable to have Pezzella, neither Diaz nor Martínez Quarta, Gallardo will have to put together a new central pair for that meeting. Federico Gattoni and Leandro González Pirez would play. As long as he would go up to a kid from the reserve, Ulises Giménez, so that he goes to the substitute bank.

To top it off, yesterday he presented Kevin Castaño and today he was summoned to Colombia.

But, returning to Mastantuono and Subiabre, Gallardo does not want to give any advantages and seriously takes the match against the team that plays in the Federal A. That is why the order was placed on the AFA. The 17 -year -old Blue kid is already strengthened in the starting team, while that of Comodoro Rivadavia, 18, looks for his opportunities and is already having minutes in the first.

In River’s last game, in the 1-0 victory against Atlético Tucumán in the Monumental, Mastantuono was one of the team’s figures and Clarín described him with 8. He generated constant danger in the rival arch, with some medium-distance shots, he took over the game and the handling of the ball, associated with his teammates and gave the pass to Facundo Colidio to leave him outlined to finish in the goal. Meanwhile, Subiabre entered the playing field in the final minutes, coupled well to the team and led a backlash that did not end in goal because Miguel Borja did not define well.

Both players are also closely followed by important European football clubs, especially after having had an outstanding performance in the South American Sub-20 in Venezuela, in which Argentina finished second behind Brazil and achieved the World Cup classification of the category, which will be played between September and October of this year in Chile. It was known a while ago that Mastatuono was in the sights of Real Madrid, Barcelona and Manchester City and Subiabre is followed by Chelsea.

They are also important for pleasant, of course. But there is time for the competition with the Sub-20, beyond the friendlies they do during the FIFA days. The training in the national team can wait a few days for the Riverplatenses jewels, since Gallardo needs young blood in Santiago del Estero to play for the Argentine Cup.
