Boca Juniors became champion of the Argentina Cup 2021 by beating Talleres on penalties after 0-0 in 90 minutes, and Juan roman riquelme, vice president of the club and member of the Football Council, remarked that “Xeneize” is the club that won the most titles in the two years that Jorge Amor Ameal has been in charge.
“Today we are two years old and it is strange for us to be the club that won the most. It is the third title we have and we do not have as many finals as the others. Is rare. I hope the fan is happy, that value the effort the boys put in. We are happy, we know what Boca is. The fan has to be clear that not everything that is said is true, the club is fine and I’m going to take good care of them and they know it “, started at TyC Sports Román, idol of the fans.
The question about the future of DT Sebastián Battaglia was not going to be long in coming, and Riquelme was cautious about it: “When we return from the friendly against Barcelona in tribute to Maradona, which for us is very important, we are going to do things properly, sit down with the people who work at the club, with the DT and we will analyze a lot of things“, he claimed.
“We believe that we do things without giving the issue too much. When we decided that Miguel did not continue, we said ‘Sebastian is until December 31’. When in those early days we had to hear that it was going to be one or the other. In these last two weeks We had to hear that the Council spoke with Gareca, Zubeldia, four or five coaches. If you ever do an interview with them, ask if we talk to them. Me I can’t go out every day to clarify “, sentenced the one born in Don Torcuato.
Finally, he was encouraged to compare himself with River:“I respect and congratulate our rival, but we are happy. The results have been good, This semester was very, very long. It is valuable that the team ends up competing and winning. “
“If it had happened the other way around – for River to become champion after eliminating Boca – it would be wonderful. That happened with the previous leadership, which they got used to winning and celebrating later. We know they have a great team and they play well. That means that we have good things, “he shot.
To conclude, he spoke about the continuity of Marcelo Gallardo: “Better. For Argentine soccer it is good. The fan of your club will be happy. For Argentine soccer it is good “, ended.
