Boca, finalist with no games and with penalties

The end of League Cup Yes Karera deserved the player Mouth simply because he is more accurate with penalties. There is no other explanation. From the game, no argument is saved to understand why the xeneizes didn’t kick the goal throughout the party they were celebrating, and why the academics, although they accumulated greater merit, flew away from the rage.

“I am filled with pride in how the team played. We were superior, “he said. Fernando Gago. The coach was absolutely right. Karera. Despite the 0-0 in 90 minutes and the 6-5 defeat on penalties, there was a clear difference in proposition, in intensity, in performance, all in favor of his team.

for something Sebastian Battaglia, when asked if his Boca was a fair finalist, he replied “yes” almost of commitment, embarrassed. And in his speech he admitted: “We certainly need to keep improving. Now we can step back a little bit on some things. We have no clear situation. This is fact. But these are games that are played as finals and you have to win. It was hard for us to get into the game in the first half especially. The race lowered its intensity by a second. The team made a great effort. Mouth it is present to say that is present in the moments where it needs to be said. So he’s a finalist. “

There was consistency in the game. Karera He bet on intense pressure, sometimes even on the same rival start. This is one of the key features that distinguishes the team from Fernando Gago. Never Mouth He found a way out of that issue and lived nearly 90 minutes parked with a degree of notorious discomfort.

It was very difficult for the team to overcome that obstacle Sebastian Battaglia which did not generate any clear scoring chances throughout the match. midfielders, Oscar Romero, Pol Fernandez and Juan Ramirez, They did not flow to the ball and disconnected Darío Benedetto from the front.

Even if not Mouth was able to scare the academies into running at excessive speed Sebastian Villa |which became headlines despite the fact that on Friday he was attacked by a young woman who accused him of sexual abuse and attempted murder in an event that took place in June 2021 (in addition, the Colombian is awaiting oral trial for an episode of gender -based violence pending from April 2020).

Although he didn’t look sharply at the last meters of the field and didn’t make too many dangerous situations, Karera accumulated merit to win. had a head Thomas Chancalay in the first half, but kicked wide. The young midfielder has three occasions Carlos Alcaraz appears on the spot by surprise, though the nuances that appeared in all of them made sense uncomfortable.

started very well Enzo Copetti as a center forward, two central markers Carlos Zambrano and Marcos Rojo lowered to his power warnings in the first half. However, due to damage Matias Rojas, instead of entering Fabricio Domínguez, Racing coach included Javier Correa located at “9” and moved Copetti because of the right wing, a role he didn’t feel. This does not seem to be the most accurate determination of Fernando Gagor because Copetti diluted to one side and was calmer when Zambrano and Rojo played. Will Racing be able to avoid penalties if Gago makes another decision?

The truth is gago chose that path, the tie was not broken and in the penalties the xeneizes celebrated because they had more goals, as their goalkeeper Agustín Rossi covered a shot from Enzo Copetti and because Emiliano Insúa did not reach the goal.

Today we will know the other finalists. At Hurricane stadium they will cross Tigers and Argentine Juniors. Boca wants to know, this is Boca who can explain how to win the semifinals without kicking the goal.
