From the 21, Nacional de Montevideo and Estudiante de La Plata will face each other for the 2 date of Group C of the Copa Libertadores. With the referee of Colombian Wilmar Roldán, the match can be followed on the screen of Fox Sports 2.
El Pincha is going through a full moment. Leader in his area in the League Cup, he comes from achieving a great victory in his cup debut against Vélez: last week, at stadium Uno, he beat Fortin 4-1 with goals from Emmanuel Más, Agustín Rogel, Gustavo Del Prete and Franco Zapiola. What's more, the difference could have been wider for the locals, who in the last three matches, counting the local tournament plus their international debut, have a 12-point streak in favor.
Thus, after the victory for Libertadores, the team led by Ricardo Zielinski scored five goals against Central Córdoba with a hat-trick by Mauro Boselli, which today will be from the match with Leandro Díaz in the visitors' attack. One of the several possible ones that could be decided by DT pincha would be the inclusion of Gustavo Del Prete, who could join the headlines.
“We are fine, happy for the present. We are aware that we have not yet achieved anything. We are in a good position in the table and the Libertadores has just started. We have to have our feet on the ground, knowing that the objectives were not achieved but we are on the right track,” Boselli said after the 5-0 team of Santiago del Estero.
In the case of locals, the Bolso knows that it has to become strong in the Grand Central Park if it dreams of advancing to the round of 16 of the contest. After the defeat in the premiere against Bragantino (0-2), those led by Pablo Repetto need to add up to not be far behind in the positions in the area.
The charrua team improved after an irregular start of the season in the local championship and showed an improvement in their game. In the face of tonight's match in Montevideo, the coach would have two doubts: who will be the right winger (Brian Ocampo or Alfonso Trezza) and the centre-forward. According to the local press, the one who would have the most chances would be former Boca and Independiente player Emmanuel Gigliotti.
Nacional comes from achieving a large win, as a visitor, 6-0 against Boston River. That was his third win of the local tournament, in which he marched in 7th place with 12 units, seven behind leader Deportivo Maldonado.
