Velasco boosts Boca ahead of Central clash | OneFootball

As has happened in recent weeks, even without the presence of Miguel Ángel Russo, Boca is facing a double shift this Wednesday, on the eve of Thursday's football practice at La Bombonera. The main news of this morning's session was Alan Velasco, who had ended yesterday with a muscle discomfort and set off an alarm signal: he worked alongside the team and is available to play against Rosario Central.

Being a substitute for Carlos Palacios, who is on a clear comeback, he is one of the first alternatives that the coaching staff, currently led by Claudio Úbeda, has on the bench. Therefore, even though he is not a starter, he is very important to the team.

After being a starter in the draw against Racing, Velasco lost his place in the team to the Chilean and came on in Boca's three consecutive victories. In fact, he scored the third goal against Independiente Rivadavia, unforgettable for the emotion in the celebration. With few minutes against Banfield, he had a greater presence against Aldosivi and, once again, left a good impression.

Also, the other smile that the first session of Wednesday brought was related to Marco Pellegrino, who recovered from the tear and joined the group thinking about the trip to Rosario.
