Argentine promotion football is full of characteristic stories and characters, one of them is the rapporteur
Luis Lugo, who follows the Los Andes campaign and curiously avoids mentioning the surname of the Milrayitas captain
,
Francesco
Celeste
,
which alludes to Temperley, one of the biggest rivals that the institution in the south of Greater Buenos Aires has.
Lugo is 42 years old, lived in Lomas de Zamora all his life and is a fan of Los Andes
: he followed the club's campaign at various stages of his life and now reports for the party media
Vivo por Los Andes,
which broadcasts the matches on I live on YouTube.
Los Andes plays in the Primera B
- the third most important AFA tournament at the metropolitan level - and has just started a new season in which
it aims to ascend to the Primera Nacional
.

To achieve this, he put together a competitive team that has in its ranks
a creative midfielder who came from Boca Juniors
, has experience in Mexican, Portuguese and Costa Rican soccer:
Francesco Celeste
, 28 years old and born in Vicente López, Buenos Aires.
Celeste arrived at
Milrayitas
in the previous transfer market and since he stepped onto the field as an official player of the club,
Lugo avoids mentioning his last name: instead of calling him Celeste he refers to him as "Francesco Light Blue"
.
The fans of Los Andes received his joke
well
and, according to reports, the player also found it amusing
: "It's my turn to report on the game, but I don't do interviews with the players so I interacted with him on air, but From comments that came to me,
I understand that it did not bother him that he referred to his last name as Light Blue
, "Luis Lugo explains when asked by
Clarín
.

As mentioned above,
Celeste arrived in Los Andes in mid-2022
, coming from Fénix, another team also plays in Primera B, and based on good performances, she won over the fans, until
this season she was confirmed by the DT Guillermo Szeszurak as team captain
.
"
When he arrived at the club, I thought I couldn't tell him Celeste at the midfielder of Los Andes
, because he is someone who is in close contact with the ball and it would be to mention him at every moment of the transmission.
So I tell him
Light Blue
or
Fafi
, since That's her nickname.
When there's no other choice, I call her Celeste
, but I try to avoid it. I want to clarify that it's not something pejorative with the people of Temperley."
Lugo points out.
So far, Celeste has played nine games with the Los Andes jersey in which she scored a goal.
Seven matches correspond to the last tournament and two to the one that just began in mid-February.
Luis Lugo also worked at Radio del Plata and at Fútbol para Todos.
"Francesco has a long history and is one of that group of good players from Boca who ended up playing elsewhere. Perhaps he did not stand out as much in other clubs in the Argentine promotion because he could not be in the best physical condition, but I think Los Andes did. He is recovering, he is a player with good footing and being physically fit he has plenty for the category.
He is an organizer who has a lot of quality and can contribute a lot to the club
, because in this category the ball tends to return more through the air than being in the floor and he brings clarity to Los Andes", analyzes the rapporteur of Vivo por Los Andes.
Francesco Celeste is aware of the situation that Luis Lugo comments and, in an interview he gave to
Solo Ascenso
, he stressed that he was able to "
do a preseason after three years
" and that "internal competition is what will lead us to have chances until the last date", alluding to the
objective that Los Andes has to move up in category
.
