El Ciclón comes from a 2-2 draw against Newell’s as a visitor. Match that ended heatedly due to inconveniences in the popular Leprosy match: a parachutist threw pieces of paper during the match referring to the Rosario classic. Local fans broke into the Coloso press area, where fights broke out. Previously, last Wednesday, Ruben Darío Insúa’s team beat Independiente Chivilcoy 1-0 and reached the next stage of the Argentine Cup.
RDI has a question fixed for its visit to Vicente López. The coach is not assured of the presence of one of the key players: Jhohan Romaña. Gonzalo Luján could enter in his place.
“I am satisfied with the team’s level of play. There was a good construction of the game, we handled the ball well. Playing like this in the future we will do well,” said Gallego in a post-equality press conference in Rosario.
“The team played a good game in general terms. It is the first game that we have all the players available and the team is very good physically, so I think that was noticeable today. It was a great round-trip game that we were able to achieve having won,” he added.
