Demichelis, Barco and Felipe Peña Biafore: the spectators of the Super de Reserva :: Olé

River Camp was a party. With a penalty saved from Santiago Beltran and a bombshell Leandro Peña Biaforethe Millonario kids defeated Mouth in the Super Reserve. After the final whistle, they came to celebrate with those present and there were several familiar faces in the stands: Martín Demichelis, Esequiel Barco, Franco Mastantuono and Felipe Peña Biafore They were some of those who mixed among the spectators who enjoyed the youth team’s victory.

The free Sunday for the professional team was not an impediment for MD and his coaching staff to come to the Camp to accompany River’s promises in a crucial match: playoff and against Boca. Between smiles, dunks in the sun and some photos with fans and family, they passed through the audience and were located in one of the corners of the main court.

And they weren’t the only ones. In the same photo, you can see Esequiel Boat already Franco Mastantuonowho also used their free afternoon to be at the Camp and watch the game near River’s Primera coach.

Days after confirmation that River will make use of the play-off clause, Felipe Pena Biafore He returned to the Camp to accompany his brother Leandro in the classic, meet up with old acquaintances and get closer to Demichelis, who will be his coach in just a few weeks.

River will recover it after the Copa América break. In this way, the match that Lanús will play on Thursday the 13th against Racing will be the last for the 23-year-old midfielder in maroon clothing before making himself available to Micho.

Although at the beginning of the year in the plans of the CT and the CD there was no possibility of executing the section that allows River to have Peña Biafore on the squad again, the context led to rethinking that decision. Or, in any case, to bring it forward, since Demichelis had anticipated that only “after the match against Riestra are we going to decide which players will return”: Enzo Francescoli contacted both the footballer and Luis Chebel to inform them of the decision.

The four goals in 24 games and the level that Peña showed in high-end crosses in his loans – an example: he was a figure in Arsenal’s historic victory against River, the first of the Demichelis cycle in Núñez – transformed him into an appealing alternative given the situation.
