The defeat against was so hard River in the Candy box that in BocEverything is in question. Noise here, noise there. Change of practice schedule. Three hours of meeting with the coach. And tough decisions. One of the emblems of the team, Sergio Romerowas suspended for two games by the club’s management following the incidents he had with Xeneizes fans shortly after the match ended. In turn, the coach Diego Martinez, Criticized, in the crosshairs, for now it resists. Until when?
The historic former goalkeeper of the Argentine National Team will not then play in the next two matches, against Belgrano and Argentinos JuniorsBoca published an official statement at 9:40 p.m. on Monday in Argentina (2:40 a.m. on Tuesday in Spain) reporting the resolution and adding that it had also identified the three fans who caused the episode and to whom the corresponding measures will be applied.
Little Romero He had not been transmitting the security he had been doing for a while. On top of that, in the previous classic with Racing he had made two mistakes that led to the academic goals and another hard setback. Then came River. There Romero also did not respond to his height in the millionaire cry. Then, when all Boca was going down the tunnel after the 0-1 against the team of Marcelo Gallardoa group of spectators insulted Chiquito, who had already gone down some steps but returned to face the fans, to insult them and to challenge them to a fight. The situation was very tense, pathetic.
For that reason Mouth punished Rosemary with a two-match suspension. We will have to see how the goalkeeper’s relationship with the Xeneize fans continues. Will he be able to turn it around? Will people forgive his reaction? Will this have been his last match with the Xeneize team? For now, the promising youngster will now be in goal. Leandro Brey. And according to reports, the management will hire another goalkeeper in January. We’ll have to wait…
The other powerful source of reproaches in Boca is its coach Diego Martinez. The early elimination in the Sudamericana, the absence of titles in 2024, the weak campaign in the league and the irregular play put the coach in the eye of criticism. There were rumors of dismissal. He even changed the practice schedule: it went from morning to afternoon. All because the Football Council asked the coach to meet. And so it was. They talked for three hours, they noticed the coach with a certain strength and that is why he will coach this weekend against Belgrano in Córdoba. In any case, the leaders hinted on the sly that they will evaluate him game by game. If he loses again, that will be the end.
