Kawa is completely stunned. The millionaire team has been sailing in unstable waters for a long time, the driver (Marcelo Gallardo) has not given reliable answers, and in the stadium the players are failing all the tests. This Sunday, the 15th edition of the local championship will be held in La Bombonera. Boca took a toll on him mentally. A 2-0 win over River (the success could have been even greater). In these bleak conditions, Colombian Juanfer Quintero, captain Franco Armani and defender Lucas Martínez Quarta were among those who approached the microphone to express themselves. The coach did not make his thoughts clear and did not express his thoughts even after the defeat against Gymnasia on the final day at Monumental.
“It’s a very difficult moment, but it’s no secret. We want to apologize to the people. We understand that. It’s never happened to us.” Sometimes we need to realize where we are. “We are responsible,” Enganche said, adding: “I am not the owner of the truth, I am speaking for myself, the game has always been collective. We have to look at what we are doing, what mistakes we are making and why we are not able to fulfill the task (…) No one wants to lose a classic. We hit rock bottom. In my case, I raised my head, we are aware of the situation. There are still games left and we have a chance against Velez (on the final day).”
Quintero, who came on in the second half to try to reverse River’s creative orphanage, continued, considering the gravity of his position: “When a situation like this happens, it’s good to know who’s going to bring up hierarchy and rebellion.”
He also confronted a journalist who asked if he supported his coach, but said he didn’t appear to have “taken any risks” or “give it his all” on the field. “And I will protect my teammates, this club. We will not feed what is not important (…) There is a disease. No one here questions the support of our technicians. Whether my job is bad, average, or good, I’m not going to make a coach’s bed. There is no need to add carbon to something that has nothing to do with it. And when we become champions, don’t say anything. ”
Quintero, upset by the reporter’s words, retorted that he wondered what his boss would think if he saw his work, but the reporter commented, “I think he’ll be happy because I’m delivering everything every day.” “You seem unprofessional.. Sorry, everyone has their own opinion and respect each other, but no one questions him as a person. You have to have a little respect. There is a medical condition. No one doubts it. “I have never disrespected you,” the Colombian told journalists.
“I am defending a great shield. I have created history here and no one wants to lose a classic. We are aware, we need to be self-critical and see what mistakes we make. This is a very difficult series, not at the level of River. We have never experienced this in this club. We are responsible. We apologize to the fans,” said the No. 10, one of the historical figures of “Madrid”.
Martinez Quarta was unsuspecting and extremely self-critical. “The way I interpret it, it was crap. We weren’t up to par in this game.”We must raise our hands and take responsibility. Unfortunately, we’ve fallen into a hole we can’t get out of. But we are here to show our faces and ask people for their forgiveness, and we know that we owe more than that. ”
armanithe play that ended in the first goal, more than rebounding the Xequiel Zeballos play. saved the river Other dangerous activities. After the game, he said, “It’s a difficult moment, a difficult moment… even more so with today’s loss. Of course, the responsibility is on us. We are the ones who play, we are the ones who go on the field, we are the ones who make the decisions and take responsibility. To continue, to continue… we have to keep our heads up. The only thing that comes out of this is work and trying every day.”
Before leaving La Bombonera, the former national team goalkeeper was asked by a journalist whether this tragic moment for River was sporting or psychological. “I’m talking about today’s game. In the first half we were even until after their first goal, but we weren’t attentive enough. They converted us from the start of the second half. Then they started to play with the ball, but we couldn’t control it and every time we got the ball we lost it quickly.”. The first goal is carelessness The first half is already over, but the content is very informative. We must learn from these things. “Everything is uphill.”
Was referee Nicolas Ramirez an influence? Armani responded: “You never hear me talk about the referee. I think the referee had very little influence on the outcome of the game. That’s the reality. But he had no influence on the result at all. It’s time to come together. We have to continue, we have to keep our heads up. As captain of the team and like any other leader, we have to lift the team up. That’s the only thing left.”
Regarding the difficulty of qualifying for the 2026 Copa Libertadores, he said:I need to recover quickly. There’s a party and this goes on. We need to prepare for the final and the demands of River. Soccer has a negative trend. It’s soccer. It hurts a lot for us, but we know it hurts the fans too. All I can say is that it requires humility and sacrifice, facing forward and standing up. Soccer is getting revenge every day. I have to fight Bereth this weekend. “We have to get out of this situation once and for all and add three points.”
