Amid the concern and dust that have been generated by the three defeats in his first three away games, Junior is getting ready to face Medellín, this Wednesday at the Atanasio Girardot stadium, starting at 8:15 pm, in the seventh day of League I 2022.
The 1-0 defeat against Once Caldas, the previous Saturday in Manizales, but above all the discreet, lukewarm and conformist way in which that game was approached, clouded the junior atmosphere and caused a barrage of criticism from the fans and the press who did not has ceased
The only way to ease the storm is with a win against Julio Avelino Comesaña’s ‘Poderoso’, who are going through a situation similar to that of the rojiblancos: they have three wins at home, but three stumbles away from home.
In order to recover the football that was seen in four of the six commitments he has played so far (not against Nacional or Once Caldas), coach Juan Cruz Real would be thinking of implementing some variants.
The inclusion of Germán Mera in place of Jorge Arias and that of Luis ‘Cariaco’ González in replacement of Fabián Sambueza are modifications that the coach could apply. Nor is it ruled out that he decides to place Fabián Viáfara instead of Nilson Castrillón and Omar Albornoz for Fredy Hinestroza.
In conclusion, Junior could train against Medellín as follows: Sebastián Viera; Fabián Viáfara, Hómer Martínez, Germán Mera, Gabriel Fuentes; Didier Moreno, Yesus Cabrera, ‘Cariaco’ González; Fredy Hinestroza, Edwuin Cetre, Miguel Borja.
The 20 players that Junior moved to Manizales moved to the capital of Antioquia to face the commitment against Comesaña and his pupils, who have just lost 2-0 against Equidad, in Bogotá. They also have a thirst for victory.
