This Sunday, Boca, led by Fernando Gago, suffered a crushing defeat in the Superclásico against River at the Estadio Más Monumental. In this context, joining the criticismstoward the current Xeneize coach was Diego Latorre, who analyzed the setback against the classic rival.
Para muchos, el principal responsable de la derrota de Boca fue el DT
The former footballer conducted an analysis of Boca's defeat and directly targeted Gago for his decisions both before and during the match. "He has a tactical reality in his head that doesn't match," he stated. Additionally, he described the situation the team is going through today as "very serious."
In his intervention on F90, Latorre launched his first criticisms: "In the moments where one has to prove themselves is where they show what kind of personality they have. Boca had won 9 of the last 10 matches, but you go to play against River and, suddenly, the team presents itself differently. That is the moment to affirm ideas and convictions. They stopped doing what they had been doing, which had even acquired functionality."
Según Latorre, Gago cambió el planteo que venía haciendo en partidos anteriores
"I understand the interventionist coach. It seems they want to win it themselves rather than delegate to the players. They want to win the match with the board before going to the logical, with what you train every day and instill in the players' blood. You can't go out on Boca's field as the protagonist and then go to River's waiting for two little plays from Merentiel. That is a message to the player," he deepened his analysis harshly.
To conclude, he criticized the coach's attitude without filters: "Playing against River, which already has its difficulties, and not doing it on equal terms speaks of a very large inferiority complex that Gago will have to solve in the future. He's the first one who disappointed himself, wanting to change and be a modern coach."
