Paolo Guerrero injured at Racing
On April 24, Racing Club failed to defend its home ground and lost 3-1 to Atlético Tucumán in the 13th round of the Argentine Professional League. This result and subsequent ones have generated the discomfort of the fans against Fernando Gago, so it is clear the pressure that the 'Academia' is going through.
But despite the fact that the 'Academia' could not achieve victory at the Cilindro de Avellaneda, there were two players who highlighted the performance of Peruvian Paolo Guerrero, stating that he had a lot of quality to face this match.
The first of them was Bruno Bianchi, who was asked how difficult it was for him to mark the 'Depredador' in this contest, and he did not hesitate to give words of praise to the 39-year-old forward.
"Paolo is an experienced player, he has a lot of technical experience, he is a number 9 who, apart from being tall, plays well with the ball and the truth is that being in a team like Racing makes it much more difficult, but well, today I think we were able to overshadow him well and luck was on our side," he said on TNT Sports.
Then came Marcelo Ortiz, who also stated that Racing's strength in looking for Guerrero were the crosses, something they were only able to control in the final minutes of the match. "They sent us many crosses and they had put more people in the area, and that's how their goal came, luckily Yonathan Cabral came in and played very well and we were able to overshadow the crosses they were throwing at us," he exclaimed.
Through Racing's social media, it was known that Paolo Guerrero suffered inflammation in his knee, so it is hoped that he will recover soon to play in the Professional League and Copa Libertadores matches.
