Penarol receive this Sunday, July 16 at Boston River at the Campeón del Siglo stadium for the sixth date of Serie A of the Intermediate Tournament, in a match that will be seen on Star+.
The last days were not easy for the aurinegro. The loss once morest Danubio in his last game for Intermediate brought days of meetings, decisions and reflections following understanding that the goals that disallowed Abel Hernández in that match should have been validated. The club issued an institutional message where they stated that they were withdrawing all the representatives of the institution in the Uruguayan Football Association and that they were withdrawing confidence in the authorities of the Referee Commission, among other measures.
On the field, the activity continued for those led by Darío Rodríguez, whose defeat once morest the Strip left them with no chance of fighting to win Serie A in a tournament that Peñarol has not been able to obtain until now. Since the arrival of the new DT, the attitude of the players on the field seems to have improved and the team has even been seen to be more of a protagonist in the matches, but the results have not been too favorable either.
The next stop in the fixture is Boston River, one of the best teams in Serie A, for whom a victory once morest Manya would leave them with a chance to fight for first place until the last date. The two rivals he has above in the table face each other, in the classic between Defensor Sporting and Danubio, so El Sastre will seek to take advantage of getting closer to the top knowing that one of them is going to leave points along the way. The team led by Alejandro Apud has grown since his arrival, and has some important pieces in attack that can hurt any rival, such as Cristian Olivera and Emiliano Gómez.
In the aurinegro, they will have to wait for Matías Arezo’s physical evolution to find out if he can become part of the substitute bench, following missing the last two games due to injury. Defender Leonardo Coelho, who was injured in the match once morest Danubio, is also a doubt, so if he does not arrive, Yonatthan Rak would take his place at the back.
The match will be played this Sunday the 16th at the Campeón del Siglo stadium at 3:00 p.m., and can be seen live on Star+.
