Boca left for Saudi Arabia

The flight was planned for 14 but due to administrative problems it was delayed four hours and then the staff had lunch in a restaurant in the Ezeiza area.The trip will last about 15 hours and the delegation will arrive tomorrow at 20 from the capital of the Arab country (there are six hours of difference with Argentina). The idea of coach Sebastián Battaglia is to put the best for this international match and that is why yesterday, in the historic 8-1 thrashing against Central Córdoba, from Santiago del Estero, he left on the bench of substitutes the players who came from consecrating champions of the Argentine Cup last Wednesday by penalties (5-4) against Talleres, of Córdoba, in Santiago del Estero.The possible team to face the Catalan team would be with Agustín Rossi; Luis Advíncula, Carlos Izquierdoz, Marcos Rojo and Frank Fabra; Agustín Almendra, Jorman Campuzano and Juan Ramírez; Cristian Medina or Edwin Cardona; Sebastián Villa and Luis Vázquez.The rest of the delegation is composed of Javier García (archer); Lisandro López, Carlos Zambrano, Agustín Sández, Eros Mancuso (defenders); Alan Varela, Esteban Rolón, Diego González, Agustín Almendra, Rodrigo Montes and Aaron Molinas (flyers); Eduardo Salvio, Cristian Pavón, Norberto Briasco and Exequiel Zeballos (forwards). The delegation is headed by Juan Román Riquelme as second vice president of the institution and will return to the country just after the meeting, next Wednesday 15 during the afternoon. From then on the squad will have vacation leave until January 4, when it will return to carry out the preseason at the Ezeiza site.Remember that Boca and Barcelona were two of the clubs that Diego Maradona integrated in his career. Both will pay tribute to him through the Maradona Cup that will be played next Tuesday from 14 (Argentine time) at the Mrsool Park stadium and televised by TNT Sports.
