Having started her football journey in Recreo and now established as the red-and-white club’s goalkeeper, the call-up for the Santa Fe native rewards months of intense work, training camps, and perseverance at the AFA training grounds. Her place on the final roster is not only recognition of her individual effort, but also a milestone for women’s football at Unión, the Santa Fe League, and the entire region, which sees its growth reflected in this historic call-up.

From the women’s football subcommittee of the institution on Avenida López y Planes, they especially celebrated this achievement, highlighting the player’s consistency and commitment. Closely supported by her family and with the backing of Alejandro, Zaninetti will take her gloves and the flag of Santa Fe to Polish soil, in a tournament where the pride of the region will be more than assured.
