It will be the last friendly before the first official test that
Diego Martínez
's team will have .
And after getting on the plane at noon after lunch, the
Boca players have already arrived in Córdoba
for the friendly this Saturday at 9 p.m. against Talleres.
Unlike the other times when they were meters from the hotel door, the fans were away from the entrance, around 150 meters, therefore, the players modified their usual routine, instead of approaching to say hello, they got off the bus and they entered directly into the hotel.
But as a surprise, before the snack,
Javier Garcia, Nicolás Figal, Edinson Cavani, Luca Langoni and Cristian Lema
came up to greet the people who were waiting for them.
Since there were not so many people, the players were able to give priority to all the fans, they took photos with many boys, hugged them and signed their shirts, therefore, a dream came true.

The most requested? Edinson Cavani
, not only at the door of the hotel but there were also fans waiting for him in the hall.
The Matador had a beautiful gesture with two little brothers who were waiting for him,
and when they were able to take a photo and hug his idol, they started crying with emotion.
What's more, the youngest boy with joy tells his grandmother
"it's Cavani"
with a smile from ear to ear.
A unique moment that will not be forgotten.
It is the Matador's first trip with the squad in 2024 after recovering from the tear that Newell's suffered before.
Will it add minutes?
There is still the talk with Diego Martínez where they will decide if he adds his first minutes of football, but if he does not do so, it will be to arrive in optimal conditions for the League Cup debut against Platense.

Your first call
Those who must be living a unique experience to which they are not accustomed are the two young people that Diego Martínez called for the first time: Román Rodríguez (2003 category) and Julián Ceballos (2004 category).
Of course, it was not the first time that the coach made maneuvers of this style but against Gimnasia and Tiro de Salta, he did the same with Mauricio Benitez, who got involved, made his debut and also traveled with the squad.
Will the same happen with the boys?
The DT takes them into account...
The possible team for the friendly against Talleres
