Talleres got out of the way in the Bombonera and had a vertical exit that was quickly cut off by Carlos Tevez.
The issue is that the Boca captain did it with an action for which perhaps he should have been expelled
three seconds into the game
.
But the iron on
Tomás Pochettino's
twin
was only penalized with a
foul
-obvious- and a yellow card by Germán Delfino.
The strange thing about the play, beyond the violence itself, was that
Carlitos
arrived very at the wrong time and hit the leg of the steering wheel that emerged from the xeneize quarry when it had already detached from the ball.
Immediately, Tevez explained his actions and made some gestures and surely felt relief when he saw that the judge had not fired him (he would have touched all the records).
It could have been calmly red because Pochettino had already released the ball looking for a pass to a teammate and Tevez not only threw a kick, but also supported and nailed the blocks of his left boot on the right calf of the Talleres player.
There is no doubt that this did not end in expulsion just because it is Tevez and because it was 10 seconds.
There is no other intention than to strike.

In the midst of a great sporting moment, since he is the absolute figure of the team directed by Miguel Angel Russo, and a personal situation complicated by the health of his father, Carlitos came from a game in which, after a fortuitous crossing by action of Game against Newell's, Alan Aguerre ended up injured, who
will have three months of inactivity due to an elbow dislocation
.
"We both play, he goes with his hand, I go with his foot. You never want to hurt a colleague. Hopefully it is nothing serious and he recovers quickly,"
Apache
said
after the game.
However, Tevez is still related to plays of this type.
Just remember the fracture of Ezequiel Unsain, who while saving at Newell's received a knee from Tevez that broke his jaw in February 2016.
And the fracture of Ezequiel Ham in 2015, who when he played for Argentinos suffered an exposed fracture of the tibia and fibula in his right leg after Tevez vehemently nailed the plugs of his right booty.
What would have happened if the action against Pochettino occurred later in the game?
For rough actions, however, there are no time rules.
And Tevez's, even though they had played a few seconds, could have been red.
