Goalkeeper: Felipe Rodriguez – Although the fans ask for Fernando Tapiafor now the goalkeeper has not made any mistakes that would cause him to lose his job and surely Veljko Paunovic will continue to provide you with the necessary confidence.
Defense: Diego Reyes – One of the footballers who dropped the most in the last tournament was the Brazilian Samir Caetanoapart from that, there is a lot of talk about his possible departure, so El Zancudo would repeat in the starting eleven.
Defense: Guido Pizarro – Just as it happened in the Uruguayan stage Dante SiboldiThe Argentine captain will leave behind his role as pivot to focus on the central defense, where he acts as a leader.
Right back: Javier Aquino – Despite his seniority, the Oaxacan does not give up his position, even when he has a young man behind him like Jesus Garza that does things well.
Left back: Jesus Angulo – Since El Stitch arrived at the Volcano, he has not let go of his position as a starter, so it is expected that he will remain the same.
Pivot: Rafael Carioca – Few footballers can offer what the Brazilian does, who has a privileged touch on the ball, being someone who runs all over the field, putting his leg in hard, quickly recovering possession.
Pivot: Fernando Gorriaran – The Uruguayan would be the same player as the Brazilian, who would be in charge of organizing the offense from the lower half.
Midfielder: Juan Brunetta – The midfield trio would be formed by the Argentine, who is one of the most recent signings, given all he demonstrated with Santos Laguna, but is still far from the expectations generated in the north.
Right winger: Luis Quiñones – Although the Colombian has not yet recovered the level he once managed, he could repeat in the starting eleven, in the end, a lineup that wins, a lineup that repeats, and then leave the field for the recovered one. Diego Lainez.
Left winger: Sebastian Cordova – This week it was revealed that the physical trainer exposed the national team for arriving late to training, however, that is not enough to leave him out when he has great skill with the ball.
Forward: André-Pierre Gignac – The years go by and there is no one who can replace the Frenchman in the center of attack, even though the Argentine is counted on Nico IbanezBomboro started the semester with a goal and will look to go for more.
