Demichelis’ plan for an intense week for River

Necessary, revitalizing, a “show of character”, such how he described it Martin Demichelis…To the triumph of River You can put many qualifiers against Arsenal, but they will all revolve around relief: after a tough defeat against Velez With a football performance that was the worst of the cycle (also admitted by the coach himself) and a few days that were quite hectic due to the issue of leaks, we had to win. But in an Argentine tournament that has a large number of matches, there is no time to relax…

It is that although River no longer competes in the Libertadores nor in the Argentine Cupwill have action again during the week: on Thursday at 9 p.m. they will receive Atlético Tucumán, already in the final stretch towards the superclassic on Sunday, October 1. Therefore, unlike what had been happening, Demichelis He did not give his players the day off and ordered that this Monday at 11 they return to training to prepare for some days that will be intense. At the Camp, those who had training against Arsenal will carry out regenerative work, while those who did not play will continue with full work.

With a Jonathan Maidana that will continue to move differentiated by the muscle injury to the left soleus that he suffered at the end of last week, those who will experience important days will be Rodrigo Aliendro y Leandro González Pirez: already recovered and practicing at the same time, they could be considered again for the next match, if the coach deems it necessary (at Pete Martínezwho also does the same as the rest, he needs a few more days of football tune-up).

Without making reference in his post-triumph conference vs. Arsenal to a possible rotation this Thursday or Sunday against Banfield, Demichelis will also observe how his players are physically to manage their loads.
