It’s not the first time. Along with the continuity and the goals, there also came the discomforts, the pains, the inconveniences typical of age. So, week after week, Edinson Cavani He had to regulate the loads in training, sometimes skipping some games and choosing to play the most important ones. And this Monday, around the corner Mouth to practices after Sunday off, The Matador turned on the alarms again.
What happened to Cavani? In a training in which Diego Martínez stopped two mixed teams on the main playing field of Boca Predio and the Uruguayan was not in either of them. She was not part of it and stayed working in a different way. Therefore, the coach will wait like other times (in the match against Platense it happened that he was called up and then was disaffected) to define whether or not he can take into account one of his most decisive footballers, the one who finishes all the plays and He is on a streak with 13 goals in the last 15 games he played.
Of course, 13 in the last 15 he played, not Boca’s last 15. Because Cavani was in 19 of the team’s 35 this year and five of the last eight. And two of those that did not participate were the defeats against Atlético Tucumán and Platense. By a discomfort in the right ankle that at the same time caused an overload in the calfalthough on Friday against Vélez he was also seen with a special bandage below the knee.
In soccer practice, a forward line was formed Lucas Janson and Miguel Merentiel, the last one that Martínez used when Cavani was not there. Although at that time the usual replacement, Luca Langoni, was not available due to a muscle injury.
And the other duo that the xeneize coach tried was made up of him himself Langoni with the kid Iker Zufiaurre. Therefore, in case Cavani does not arrive, the competition will be to earn the place as the Beast’s companion.
