Just hours before a new edition of the Superclásico at Estadio Monumental, Boca Juniors coach Claudio Úbeda has shaken things up with the squad list. For this key Torneo Apertura clash, the manager has made drastic decisions that signal a change of direction in the handling of the first team.
The big absences by technical decision
The most shocking news is the exclusion of three big names: Kevin Zenón, Lucas Janson, and Agustín Martegani. Unlike other teammates who are dealing with physical issues, these three players are fully fit, so their absence is exclusively the result of a tactical decision by Úbeda. The coach seems to be looking for a different level of commitment or different qualities to face River Plate at their home ground.
The "Xeneize" warms up
With the rest of the traveling squad confirmed, Boca is getting ready for a match that could shape the team’s mood in the tournament. Úbeda’s decision to leave out players who had been getting regular minutes adds an extra layer of pressure and expectation around the starting eleven that will take the field tomorrow.
