In recent years, River had two of the best goalkeepers in its history. Marcelo Barovero was a fundamental piece at the beginning of the Gallardo cyclehe had memorable saves and performances, he won unforgettable titles and, with his humility, he got into the hearts of the fans. A year and a half following his departure, Franco Armani appeared, a brilliant goalkeeper who was – and continues to be – fundamental for RiverThis was demonstrated in the last years of the Muñeco cycle.
While comparisons are odious, there are commonalities between Barovero and Armani. Regarding personality, both are very calm and are far from controversies, fights or flashy statements to win over the fans, they managed to demonstrate this on the field. In relation to style, there are some similarities, but the most notable is that both are savers and that the River fan was given memorable saves.
River faced Banfield for the sixth date of Zone A of the League Cup. The meeting was at Florencio Sola and Marcelo Barovero is on the Taladro team. It goes without saying that, if this match had been at the Monumental, some 86 thousand people would have given Trapito a standing ovation. In the preview there were greetings from Barovero to some former teammates, but once the match ended the long-awaited meeting between Trapito and Armani took place.

What did Armani say?
“I didn’t know Marcelo (Barovero) personally, but it was a great pleasure to be able to give him a hug and share a few words”, stated the Millonario goalkeeper in dialogue with ESPN. It should be noted that Franco Armani was the great figure of the Greatest in a match that was far from ideal. It is because of Pulpo that River was not defeated in the run-up to the superclassic.
