He could not find stability in the back. He has failed to replace the dynamism lost in midfield since his departure. Nicolas De la Cruz. You have too many doubts, river Of course, with so many unknowns, he enjoys a certainty so strong that it repeatedly saves him from difficult situations. Of Miguel Borja this is about. The Colombian enjoys an impressive scoring record. Now he is back America Cup and it was adopted in the sixth round of the Argentine league.
The river disappeared in Monumental against the poor Lanuswho went on to win with a good goal from Marcelino Moreno at the beginning of the second period. Then, immediately, Martin Demichelis with Borja. That last episode was eight minutes. And the Colombian tied it moments later, taking advantage of a short pass behind the defender Ezequiel Muñoz. He ran up, poked goalkeeper Alan Aguerre up top and then pushed him.
Afterwards, River struggled to build football and scoring situations to win. And on top of that, in the 92nd minute, Jonathan Torres came out to save a double fault by former Sevilla player Federico Gattoni (one of the million dollar additions) and to beat former Cádiz goalkeeper Jeremías Ledesma , also River’s reinforcement. It seems like a finished history. No one thought that in 94 Borja moved again to establish the final 2-2 from the ground, suddenly, took advantage of a rebound from goalkeeper Aguerre, who blocked a shot by Adam Bareiro, another footballer who added of the red band group diagonally.
Borja’s statistics are impressive: he is in the Top Five of scorers in 2024. He scored 25 goals, same as Kilyan Mbappe. He is just below the Iraqi Aymen Hussein (27), the Qatari Akram Afif (26) and the Swede Viktor Gyokeres (26). The Colombian has played a total of 2,148 minutes this year between River and his country’s team. The average is 1 goal every 85 minutes. And they have 7 games in a row becoming millionaires.
The other Argentine giants who played this Sunday in the league were Boca, who drew 2-2 against Defensa y Justicia. Like River, they lost twice and tied both times. Diego Martínez started some reinforcements: Gary Medel, Tomás Belmonte, Brian Aguirre and Milton Giménez.
In any case, Boca did not achieve a great performance. It cost him a lot. Santiago Ramos put up the Defense. Moments later, Miguel Merentiel tied it, from a penalty kick. Then, the locals took advantage again thanks to a good shot from outside by Aaron Molinas. Until a one-on-one matchup with Milton Giménez, Kevin Gutiérrez ended up in his own goal in a desperate attempt to put it away.
In the end, with the continuation of the Argentine league after the America Cup, the only big winner was Racing, who on Saturday defeated Godoy Cruz. Previously, San Lorenzo and Huracán drew the classic neighborhood 1-1 and Independiente lost 1-3 with Instituto sa Córdoba.
Positions show as leaders Hurricane and Union with 14 points, followed by Racing, Instituto and Talleres with 13. Then, with 11, Belgrano came out. For its part, River has 10, Boca 8, Independiente 6 and San Lorenzo (with fewer games) only 2.
