2-1: Boca wins and awaits Cavani’s “yes”.

Life Mouth in a state of permanent madness. He always had everything, except calmness. Now he comes with Agustín Rossi, one of his best footballers, in the spotlight. How will Bombonera receive it after the failed contract renewal? Meanwhile, he also came flirting with a world-class goalkeeper like Sergio Romero and shot serious chances to be affected by taking on Edinson Cavani. Amid this chaos, they beat Platense 2-1, but the game was far from convincing.

There is so much going on in Boca in such a short time that a quick review is necessary. He was fired from the Libertadores. He fired his coach Sebastián Battaglia at a service station to appoint a former historic player like Hugo Ibarra who had never managed the First Division. He also sent off his proper captain Carlos Izquierdoz. Later, the conflict with Rossi: his contract expires on June 30 and, due to major economic differences, Boca closed the negotiations in the middle of a tense climate.

With this ultra-convulsive fact, in order to cover the gap that Rossi will leave in the future, they began to contact Sergio Romero. At 35 years old, Chiquito played last season in Italian Venezia and has been to the Boca complex in Ezeiza twice in the last three days. Will he sign until December 2024, as suggested by Vice President Juan Román Riquelme? Of course, the most brilliant possibility is missing: Cavani reappears with options to join, although now it is stronger than before.

Riquelme personally leads the management with Cavani. Boca made a first offer, the Uruguayan presented a counterproposal, Riquelme responded with a second offer that included a contract until December 2023 with bonuses and goals. The former Napoli, PSG and Manchester United, who is resting in his native Salto, must respond at this time. This is the permission to incorporate that Boca has after the departure of Izquierdoz expires this Monday at 8:00 pm

In Uruguay there are voices indicating that Cavani has already said “yes” and making sure that he will come to Argentina today. It is said that the answer has not yet come to Boca. DT Ibarra, as expected, chose caution on this issue: “I don’t know anything. He is a good striker, international. I can’t say that about a footballer who is not at the club now”.

The truth is that decisive times will come in Boca for Cavani and for Romero. Of course, life continues to xeneize in the Argentine league. The fans gave Rossi a warm welcome and the Ibarra team at least managed to smile on Saturday night at the Bombonera. Oscar Romero, the talented man who has been criticized for his game away from the area, this time stepped into the hot zone. It has been activated. And Boca enjoyed it. Early on, Romero nailed a nice free kick from an angle. Near the end of the first half, he headed the second, after a great move and a perfect assist from Sebastián Villa.

After his decent first half, Boca declined in the second and opened up a reaction space for Platense, who scored through Nicolás Morgantini. In any case, the squids lacked depth, the constant attacks, and the xeneizes ended up celebrating.

The race only draws against mediocre Barracas Central

The other good players who played on Saturday were Racing, but they showed no ideas and only drew 0-0 as a visitor against the mediocre Barracas Central. Fernando Gago’s team wasted a good opportunity to shorten the additional distances with a striker, considering that the leader Atlético Tucumán lost 1-3 in Sarandí against Arsenal. The other results: Unión 2 – Vélez 1 and Talleres 2 – Argentinos 0. Today the classic will be played between Independiente (with the debut of Julio Falcioni in his third period as DT in Red) and River. Also San Lorenzo – Students, Aldosivi – Huracán and Newell’s – Colón.

In the continuation of the 12th chapter of the Argentine league, Atlético Tucumán is first with 25 points. Gimnasia has 24. Unión is third with 21, followed by Racing and Argentinos with 20. In ninth position, with 18 units, Boca appears, the team beyond this championship wants to reorganize himself thinking about the future and dreaming of reaching the big market fell. Finally, now Cavani will dress as a xeneize?
