From the hand of Julio Vaccari, Independent wants to take off once and for all. Little by little, she managed to restore security to the team and, from back to front, she is finding a operation which still lacks greater offensive weight. He carries seven games without losingwith three wins and four draws, is in the race to enter a 2025 Cup and awaits Vélez in the quarterfinals of the Argentine Cup.
This Sunday you will receive Argentinos Juniors from 2:30 p.m. Professional League in a duel that Avellaneda hopes will serve as a boost for the final stretch of the year. However, there is something that has everyone in suspense in the Rojo and it is the reduction of stadium capacity that he has been suffering in the last local matches due to a precautionary measure imposed by Justice. Will he get up this time?
On September 1, against River, the two popular losses were only enabled at 55 percent each. And in the previous match at the Libertadores de América-Ricardo Enrique Bochini, against Rosario Central on August 17, by 50 percent per side.
The leadership led by the president Nestor Grindetti presented several reports last week to the Guarantee Court No. 1 of Avellaneda in charge of the judge Mariela Bonafine. One, certifying compliance with the imposed measure. And another, confirming that the stands responded correctly to the attendance of the public, in addition to detailing the preventive work that has been carried out on the field.
“The multiple actors, including engineers, architects and the supplier company, all in common agreement and unanimity, dictated that the Libertadores de América is suitable for sporting events. We let the judge know that and we asked her to lift it for a full capacity “he told him Daniel Seoanegeneral secretary of Independiente, to Clarion.
A new hearing is scheduled for this Thursday morning in which a resolution is expected. In El Rojo they wait for the return of the entire capacity since they consider that there are no longer reasons for such a measure to be maintained. On the other hand, the prosecutor in charge of the case, Mariano Zittois more measured about it.
What can happen? There are three possibilities: that Independiente is actually granted full capacity, that the 55 percent restriction of each popular drop is maintained or, an intermediate alternative, to increase the percentage of attendance although still maintaining a certain reduction.
Why is the capacity on the Rojo field restricted? It all started in the Argentine Cup match they played on that stage. Velez y San Lorenzo on August 6. During that crossing, one of the cement blocks of the tribune moved and this led to the action of Justice.
Beyond the repairs carried out by the architect in charge of the construction of the stadium and specialists, who assured that there was never any danger of collapse, the judge considered it appropriate to evaluate the behavior of the stands as the matches went by.
