Banfield’s Uruguayan striker, nicknamed Rocky Balboa, has previewed the Copa Argentina semi-final, and he is not pretending that Boca Juniors are anything other than the favourites.
Respect for Boca, belief in Banfield
The forward acknowledged the quality and pedigree of the Xeneize, but he was quick to point out what his own side can offer. In his view, Banfield have real weapons that can trouble a team of Boca’s stature, and he made clear the squad is not going into the tie simply to make up the numbers.
A promise from Troglio
The striker also revealed that coach Pedro Troglio has made a promise to the group should they win the tie. The details of the incentive were enough to spark curiosity among fans, with the forward’s comments hinting at a possible car giveaway tied to the result.
