As if he had little with how bad the first team is doing in the Professional League (he has three consecutive defeats without scoring goals),

another very bad news fell

to

San Lorenzo

in the last hours. Last Sunday

, on the eve of the commitment to Argentinos Juniors, they discovered that the door of the museum located behind the Platea Norte Baja was violated

and when they entered, in addition to finding a disorder, they realized that three trophies of historical and economic importance were missing: the 1936 Honor Cup, the second-place trophy of the same year and the 1946 Champion's Cup.

"Those who entered to steal it were very clear ... They stole silver trophies, carved, not only historically valuable but also for the material in which they are made. They also wanted to take the plasma TV that was on the floor, but it seems that they could not "

, narrated the historian and museum manager, Alberto Barja on the official site

What no one knows for sure yet is when this could have happened since the museum called "Jacobo Urso" has not received visits since before the pandemic.

Nor had anyone been there since then because of the restrictions.

From the club they reported that the corresponding police report has already been filed and an investigation process will now be opened to try to find out what happened. The security cameras will be checked. An inventory will also be carried out to find out if there are more shortages.

It is not the first time something similar has happened.

Years ago, the 1933 Champion's Cup also disappeared. The area in which the Pedro Bidegain stadium is located, popularly known as the

New Gasometer

, is complicated in terms of insecurity and the institution's authorities warned that things from the club repeatedly.

And in recent months, especially in 2020, when the club's doors were closed and with almost no internal movement, the right ground could have been given for the friends of others to do their thing.

It will be necessary to see if more details can be obtained about the criminal act that happened in the museum, which remained a physical part of Barça's history.
