“Bocha” Batista trained with a surprising starting 11 ahead of the Vinotinto’s debut against Ecuador

Santa Clara, California, became the base of operations for the Red wineand from there the national soccer team was seen training with a possible surprise 11 to face the debut against Ecuador next Saturday the 22nd.

And the Argentine coach, Fernando “Bocha” Batistatested Rafael Romo in goal. Meanwhile, Alexander González, Jon Aramburu, Wilker Ángel, Nahuel Ferraresi and Miguel Navarro played as defenders; Yangel Herrera and Telasco Segovia were placed in the recovery zone; while Jefferson Savarino and Yeferson Soteldo were tested to set up the attack; followed by Jhonder Cádiz and Salomón Rondón in the definition zone.

He tried a 3-5-2 formation supported by two wingers on the wings with Aramburu or González on the right and Navarro on the left.This is a probable lineup made up of youth and experience to face the first challenge of the 2024 Copa América, as Líder highlights.

However, “Bocha” will need a different tactical scheme against Mexico.

It should be remembered that in the previous game against Ecuador as part of the South American Qualifiers that ended 0-0, the Vinotinto presented a 4-3-3 formation, with Wilker Ángel and Christian Makoun as central defenders, who was a variation in training by Ferraresi.

Another difference is Segovia and Savarino, who were not part of the last match against Ecuador and who can now start in the starting eleven that Batista is planning.

The strategist would also have the novelty of placing Cádiz to attack from the outside and Salomón to go inside in an attempt to have more depth and strength to search for goals.
