for a good stretch of the tournament and was saved from relegation on the last date, now goes first and although this weekend will be free, it will not stop leading since in the first eight dates

captain's ribbon designed with an image of Lionel Messi, the World Cup and the shield of Los Andes
and the DT immediately gave it to the captain, Francesco Celeste, to use in matches.
