In the run-up to a decisive match for the Apertura Tournament, Racing fans staged a strong symbolic gesture in support of Gustavo Costas and in rejection of theleadership led by Diego Milito.
During the night before the match against Huracán, a group of supporters modified the sign of a street near the Cylinder: they covered up the name ofMilito and placed that of the current coach, in a clear show of support in the midst of the team's difficult present.
The fans are not happy with Milito's management
The intervention, which quickly went viral on social networks, was removed hours later, although the message had already been installed. This was a new manifestation of the fans' discomfort with the management of the club, which had already been felt in the last home game against Barracas Central with chants against the board of directors, at the same time that the
coach was applauded.
The sporting context increases tension. The Avellaneda team comes to the close of the regular phase of the Apertura Tournament forced to win to secure their qualification to the round of 16 without depending on other results. A tie would leave him subject to what happens with other teams, while a loss would eliminate him. The current opponent is also at stake a lot, since Huracán depends on himself to advance and a win guarantees his place in the next round.
In addition to the local tournament, the international present adds pressure. The Academy is in third place in its group in the Copa Sudamericana with 4 points, behind Botafogo (7) and Caracas (5), with an irregular performance that jeopardizes
its chances of advancing. Racing plays everything against Huracán to qualify for the playoffs of the Apertura TournamentRacing is difficult in its Copa Sudamericana group
With this scenario, the game in Avellaneda appears to be a turning point both in sports and in the institutional sphere, with an increasingly tense climate
