Aguada was willing to play with up to eight players available, as he told this Wednesday to Referee the vice president of the club, Daniel Olivera.
“We are going to show up to play though We believe that it is a risk to play the game due to the sanitary conditions we are in. I think that it is exposed to the rival and the judges. If common sense prevails and for a health issue, the game should not be played, but until they tell us that we cannot appear and that they give us the lost match, the will of the club is to appear. With eight anyway we show up, “he had said.
