Marcos Rojo's relatives tend to have a high exposure on social networks and in particular his sister, Micaela, who this Tuesday posted a video on her Tik Tok account showing a tour of the Boca Juniors defender's house and showing off various “treasures” from his time with the Argentine national team and its clubs, but none of Estudiantes de La Plata.
The clip entitled “things that my brother has fart in his house”, is shown among other period objects from the defender's career. The clip illustrates memories of his campaign for the European teams, Spartak Moscow, Sporting Lisbon and Manchester United. In addition, images with Albiceleste highlighting their celebration in the goal against Nigeria at the World Cup in Russia with Lionel Messi.
There are also two boxes in the colors of the albiceleste shirt and the Xeneize shirt with the identification numbers in each case, 16 and 6, respectively. And a statue with the jacket of Sporting de Lisboa or a replica of the Copa Libertadores, a title that he managed to win with Pincha in 2009 with the leadership of the remembered Alejandro Sabella.
In addition, there is a plush toy from the 2018 World Cup in Russia, a Manchester United “sanctuary” with a book, t-shirts and photos, a Spartak Moscow book, a painting of Boca Juniors above a stove, a ball and a board for serving snacks.
The video went viral on the networks like every publication that Micaela makes about her brother, who is one of the references of Boca Juniors and this Sunday she played in the Superclassic (1-0) win at the Monumental Stadium and that allowed the team led by Sebastian Battaglia to take the lead in Zone B of the League Cup.
Last week, after the victory of Boca Juniors against Estudiantes 1-0 in La Plata, a controversy arose because Rojo was whistled every time he played the ball. Although there was also applause, some fans of the Lion do not forgive him that he did not return to the club in early 2021. As soon as the match ended, the football players' brothers made strong posts on Instagram in which they criticized the Pincha fans.
Rojo debuted in the First Division in Estudiantes in 2008 apart from the Libertadores also won the 2010 Apertura Tournament. The following year he went to Russia and began his decade-long European stage. In between he played two World Cups, Brazil 2014 and Russia 2018.
Marcos is a pillar in the defense of Boca Juniors and after the brilliant victory against River Plate he had a phrase mocking the millionaire fans which generated another controversy. As Battaglia gave its players two days off, the team will return to training this Wednesday where they will continue to prepare for what is coming. There is now a break for the Playoffs and then competition will follow in the local tournament.
In April, the blue and gold team will begin their participation in the group zone of the Copa Libertadores in which they will seek to achieve the long-awaited seventh consecration. He has a good squad to meet that goal and in a few days he will start writing another story at the leading club competition in South America.
