Some relief came. The moment Gastón Ávila was injured in Monday’s game against Racing, the alarms in Central began to sound. It is that the defender had been one of the best of the Auriazul defense and it was feared that it was something serious, but for the tranquility of coach Cristian González, the studies carried out on his right shoulder on Tuesday afternoon, showed that there is no injury to gravity although he will be out of the courts for a few weeks.
The MRI performed on the defender revealed an “acromio-clavicular grade two” injury, according to the official medical report of the club, ruling out something ligament or bone, so he should not be operated on. Yes, he will remain with the area immobilized for a few days and will be away from the playing fields for two to three weeks, so he will surely lose the duel against Arsenal next Monday at El Gigante and what will be the visit to Colón in Santa Fe.
The youth had to leave the duel against Racing 10 minutes into the second stage after falling badly with his right shoulder after a struggle with local striker Tomás Chancalay. In his place, Nicolás Ferreyra entered, who in principle would be his replacement in the next official meetings.
Minutes of football
After the defeat against Racing in Avellaneda, the Auriazules worked on Tuesday morning at the Arroyo Seco site. There, there were regenerative tasks for those who were holders before the Academy. While those who added a few minutes, or did not play, starred in a friendly against Douglas Haig de Pergamino. In that rehearsal, the Uruguayan Martín Rabuñal had his extra-official premiere on the court. While Marco Ruben, who played almost 30 minutes in the Cylinder, did not take part in the training match.
The scoundrels played two games of 45 minutes each against the Parchmentians. In the first, there was a victory for the starters of Douglas against the alternative of Central by 1 to 0. The second friendly, which faced the reserve of Arroyito against the substitutes of the Pergamino club, concluded 2 to 2. Ignacio Russo , from a penalty kick, and Franco Frías, were the authors of the goals for the team led by Adrián Dezotti in collaboration with José Luis Puma Rodríguez.
The alternative team of Central, would have formed with: Juan Pablo Romero; Damián Martínez, Nicolás Ferreyra, Emmanuel Ojeda and Joan Mazzaco; Alan Marinelli, Martin Rabuñal, Francesco Lo Celso, Luciano Ferreyra; Gino Infantino and Patricio Cucchi.
The presence of Uruguayan Rabuñal, who joined the squad a week ago to cover the loss of the injured Fabián Rinaudo, was the main novelty of the trial. The 26-year-old midfielder, who ended the sanitary isolation that he had been fulfilling, will be evaluated during these days by Kily González, who will have to decide if he takes it into account for Monday’s game against Arsenal in Arroyito.
As for the reserve team, almost the same people who played last Friday against Racing in Avellaneda were on the court. The only change was the admission of Tomás O’Connor instead of Facundo Buonanotte, who recovers from a muscle contracture. The eleven was made up of: Marcelo Miño; Ulises Ciccioli, Fernando Godoy, Nahuel Franco and Lucas Amud; Mateo Tanlongo; Ramiro Peralta, O’Connor and Lautaro Giaccone; Russo and Frías.
The judge to receive those of the Viaduct
Next Monday’s game between Central and Arsenal will be refereed by Leandro Rey Hilfer, who is 35 years old and hails from the Buenos Aires town of Martín Coronado. In general history, King Hilfer once led the auriazules. It was on March 31, 2019, for the last date of the Super League of that year, when the team led by Diego Cocca defeated Argentinos Juniors 2-0 at La Paternal with goals from Leonardo Gil and Alfonso Parot.
Rey Hilfer made his debut in the first division a little over two years ago, in February 2019. And in total he has directed 7 matches in the highest category, with 3 home victories and 4 for visitors. Arsenal, meanwhile, has already led it twice, both in Sarandí: a victory against Estudiantes (3-1), and a defeat against Atlético Tucumán (2-1).
Rey Hilfer’s collaborators in the Giant will be: Alejo Castany, as assistant 1; Pablo Gualtieri, assistant 2; and Nelson Bejas, who will fulfill the role of fourth official.
