The goalless draw against Rosario Central not only left River with a sense of disappointment in footballing terms, but also brought news that raised alarms in Núñez. In that match, Sebastián Driussi was replaced by Maximiliano Salas due to physical discomfort and, recently, the official medical report was confirmed: grade one tear in the left hamstring.
After undergoing tests, it was determined that the 29-year-old forward will have to remain inactive for between 15 and 21 days. This way, he is ruled out for the matches against Tigre and Argentinos Juniors in the Torneo Apertura and he would barely make it to the clash against Vélez, scheduled for February 22. In addition, it is very likely that he will miss River's debut in the Copa Argentina, against Ciudad de Bolívar, on the 17th of this month.
