Attention, Boca fans! Our debut in the Copa Sudamericana is coming and there’s news that breaks our hearts: Leandro Paredes, our captain, returned from the World Cup with an injury and won’t be available for Thursday. Don’t tell me! El Vasco Arruabarrena is already in the lab, thinking how to put together this Boca without its standard-bearer.
Xeneize hosts O’Higgins at La Bombonera, and the fans are already fired up with the drums. But without Paredes, the midfield is left limping. Who will replace him? El Vasco has several options: Pol Fernández, Ezequiel Fernández, and even the kid Valentín Gómez. But none have the captain’s hierarchy. This is crazy!
Arruabarrena, who knows about cups, is already adjusting the pieces. In yesterday’s practice, he tried a more offensive 4-3-3, with Cavani and Merentiel up front. But the key is in the midfield: he needs a midfielder who can cut and distribute. La Scaloneta is watching us! Scaloni must be attentive, because Paredes is key for the national team.
The medical report says Paredes has a muscle overload, but it’s not serious. However, he won’t make it for Thursday. El Vasco prefers to take care of him: «We’re not going to risk Leo, he’s too important for what’s coming.» Let’s go, Boca! This team is all about grit, about balls. Without Paredes, but with the support of La Bombonera, we have to win.
O’Higgins is coming strong, but at home we are lions. El Vasco is already thinking about the XI: Romero; Advíncula, Lema, Rojo, Blanco; Pol Fernández, Ezequiel Fernández, Zenón; Merentiel, Cavani, and Langoni. Come on, Boca! This is the Sudamericana, and we have to show that we are the greatest.
The fans are already preparing for Thursday. The flags, the chants, everything ready to cheer. Without Paredes, but with heart. Don’t tell me, Vasco! Let’s go, a great match is coming.
