Key day for Cavani, Lema and Zenón: do they play against Talleres? :: Olé

Boca suffers from its wave of injuries. One that doesn’t stop, that every week has a new loss, and an important one. On Wednesday it was Luca Langoni’s turn, with another muscle problem, a situation that is repeated in several players and that does not seem to be a coincidence. Well, in that framework, this Thursday’s practice will be essential so that Edinson Cavani, Cristian Lema and Kevin Zenón can be on Saturday against Talleres.

Due to the closeness of the game, it will be decisive that the three are part of the soccer test that Martínez has planned to receive precisely the T. Because otherwise, Anyone who is not available will begin to be more outside than inside that game.especially taking into account that the other week Boca plays a pivotal match for the Copa Sudamericana against Nacional Potosí.

Cavani’s situation is dragging. He has a discomfort in his left knee that now took him out of the game against Central Córdoba, as it had previously left him out of the debut in the Professional League in Tucumán (in the middle he played against Fortaleza, for the Cup). The idea was that the goalscorer of the cycle along with Merentiel would join the squad this week, but he still could not do that. Therefore, this Thursday’s practice will mark the state of its evolution.

Lema’s case is a more complex case. Because last Friday, the day after being present at Benedetto’s birthday party that caused so much noise and commotion, it was reported that he had a strain. However, There was never an official supporting medical report, as happened with Javi García’s knee operation or with Langoni’s muscle injury. Therefore, it raised suspicions: either it was a punishment from the coach or it was an annoyance that did not originate in the sporting field.

Finally, Zenón appears on this list, the one who also scared everyone in Wednesday’s practice, which could not finish due to discomfort in the patellar tendon of the right knee. The studies did not show any injury in that sense, but if the ailment persists and does not allow him to train normally, perhaps Martínez will decide to take care of him and he will not be able to play against the T.

In short, this Thursday will not be just another training session: it will be one in which Martínez will have to, once again, dribble around the injuries that have been affecting the team so much…
