Another failure for River: they lost 2-0 with Deportivo Riestra in the Professional League :: Olé

Yeah Riestra wrote one of the most important pages in his history on this spring afternoon in June, his self-love and solidarity had a lot to do with keeping himself organized from beginning to end, but a very considerable amount contributed to him River. An apathetic River, pale, who suffers too much from this type of match and demonstrated again this year that when he is taken away from the comforts of the hybrid grass of the Monumental, he completely loses his essence: he feels too much of a visitor and easily allows the conditions to be imposed on him. , as had happened a few weeks ago in La Paternal.

Predictable, slow, lacking creativity and with individualities below the desired level, Demichelis’ team was built almost alone by this tough defeat, which represents another mark of those that they do not want to remember and leaves them with doubts about the preseason and the return to activity. (having so much time, after all, is good news today). Because she fell into the trap of Fabbiani Ogre and collided countless times against a wall of black shirts, which in the second half even included a tight line of six defenders.

That was where he lacked rebellion and character to prevail against a rival with a high dose of commitment. Also, the well-planned disorder, which causes the marks to be lost: as has become usual, River lacks a plan B, the cunning to unravel the knot that was proposed to it. With Nacho Fernández, Echeverri and Barcothe offensive ones ahead of a Fonseca that showed little combat, the team brought together similar players and could not transform the high possession (78%) into dangerous goal situations, especially in the complement (they did not kick at three posts).

And it is so true that Riestra took a visit to his game and that the hard mark that Fabbiani put on Echeverri every time he touched the ball (they divided it between Pereira and Céliz, depending on the position) meant that River was missing a different foot: Aliendro, who did not add minutes, could have been alternatives , or Simón, although in the middle zone. The coach tried to change in the second half with the income of Mastantuono (with beauty and good interventions), Ruberto (the ball reached him little or nothing), Palavecino (a farewell in tune with his semester) and Subbiabre (lost on the left), but in reality it brought a little more confusion: everything ended in a kind of 3-2-1-4 without a happy ending.

In that complement, precisely, the team considerably lowered its offensive production. Because in the first 45′, several times he had put together first-class passes and finished plays on the right, which only did not result in a goal due to obvious errors in the definition (Solari hit the crossbar once and the goalkeeper’s chest once, having time to try something better). Something that demonstrates, once again, Borjadependencia: On this occasion, there was not even the alternative of throwing a cross into the area to catch something.

There was also this Thursday the Díazdependencia: without the savior of many games, González Pirez lost many duels and even escaped expulsion, Boselli did not transmit the security of other times, committing the childish penalty at the end that came after a lateral and between them, in addition, they failed to mark Barrionuevo in the first goal (the free kick came from a poorly taken foul). Benegas, who entered for the second half, seemed to watch all of the coach’s videos of him when he was a player and complicated them with dribbles and great use of his body, giving Riestra another air up front.

Key air for an identical victory, which adds to the previous ones of San Lorenzo and Independiente (particularly, these three against the greats are their only victories in the last ten games). In River, quite the opposite: it is a defeat that once again demonstrates the main shortcoming of this team and that worries (or occupies) for the future…
