How to believe in superstitions. As if for the shaman/healer/sorcerer/manosanta to brag about, who carried out an energetic cleansing in the xeneize intimacy and advised putting aside the traditional shirt to wear a totally yellow one. There is a monumental coup in Argentine football. It is the impact of Mouth in the very house of River, in a Superclásico with multiple singular nuances.
This duel is not the same since the end of the Libertadores Cup played in Madrid what River he beat Boca. The millionaires enhanced their virtues. The xeneizes could never overcome their complexes. Those ghosts continued to flutter. Until for this visit to the Monumental The surprising decision arose not to use the traditional shirt for the first time in the history of an official Superclásico. And in the end Boca was able to celebrate in front of River After five years…
Agustin Rossi, the same goalkeeper who had made an ugly mistake in the last clash with River, this time he became a superhero. He covered two hand in hand to Julian Alvarez. He deflected a free kick from Juanfer Quintero. And she flew in for a lob headbutt from Agustin Palavecino. There was also a shot by Enzo Fernández off the crossbar.
Although almost at no time did he exhibit exaggerated defensive intentions, although he tried to propose, to Mouth it cost him an enormity to generate goal situations in almost the entire match. However, he still won. He did it for an episode that could be defined as a blooper.
no one imagined that Leandro Gonzalez Pirez I would make a beginner’s mistake, I would let the ball run and cover it for him to take Frank Armani instead of clearing to the side, knowing that a sprinter like Sebastián Villa was harassing him. But the defender of River He made the least thoughtful decision, he wanted to protect her, the Colombian beat him, eluded the late-starting goalkeeper and touched the empty goal. It was the winning goal.
Despite turning into a figure Agustin Rossithe ideal version of River. Although he did not deserve to lose, he did not show a dynamic and precise performance either. He could not reverse the result or with the income of Juanfer Quintero, Braian Romero, Agustin Palavecino, Elias Gomez… There was no case.
The xeneizes players celebrated on the same playing field and in the locker room with the classic hit: “A minute of silence… River that he is dead”. Of course, they had to dodge projectiles from the millionaire fans and needed police shields to leave the field and get into the locker room. “Mouth He took too much prize, “he said. Marcelo Gallardo with an undisguised anger. “This game can be a hinge”, he was excited Sebastian Battaglia.
