San Lorenzo will be local this Saturday against Platense at the start of a new interim term, sixth in the last three and a half years, due to the recent departure of Pedro Troglio after being eliminated from the Copa Argentina by Racing de Córdoba, a team in the Federal A tournament.
The match at the New Gasometer, valid for the tenth date of Zone A of the Professional League Cup, will be played from 2:00 p.m. with arbitration by Patricio Loustau and broadcast by Fox Sports Premium.
San Lorenzo will be led by Fernando Berón, who returned to the club at the beginning of the year as general coordinator of the lower divisions and will now be in charge of the professional squad for the remaining five matches to conclude the LPF Cup.
The last time they met at the Nuevo Gasómetro was a 2-2 draw for the Apertura ’98 tournament.
This transition until the election of the next DT It will be San Lorenzo’s sixth interim since late November 2018 when Diego Monarriz replaced Claudio “Pampa” Biaggio.
Monarriz himself had three minicycles (2018, 2019 and 2021), in addition to another 10 games as main coach (2019/20) and there were also two brief periods for Leandro Romagnoli: one with Hugo Tocalli in 2020 and the second alone in 2021.
The sporting instability of San Lorenzo also devoured Troglio, as happened before with Jorge Almirón (25 games), Juan Antonio Pizzi (13), Mariano Soso (11), Diego Dabove (22) and Paolo Montero (17). The former medic for the Argentine national team took office last January and barely lasted 10 commitments, with a balance of 1 win, 5 draws and 4 losses.
San Lorenzo has 7 units in the LPF Cup, the same as Platense, and has practically zero chances of reaching the LPF Cup quarterfinals. His most realistic goal is focused on adding points to improve his average.
San Lorenzo and Platense will play the 110th match in the history of professionalism. Those from Boedo have an advantage of 30 games (52 wins, 35 draws and 22 losses). The last time they met at the Nuevo Gasómetro was a 2-2 draw for the Apertura ’98 tournament.
