Gallardo’s River set unwanted record: most defeats in last 15 matches | OneFootball

The “Millonario” can’t catch a break and, after the defeat against Vélez, has reached the worst streak in Argentine football, even surpassing two teams fighting relegation.

River is going through a complicated present, which worsened after the defeat against Vélez. This Sunday, they became the team with the most losses in the last 15 local league matches.

At the José Amalfitani stadium, the “Millonario” wrote one of the worst chapters in its history. The loss to the “Fortín” marked their 10th defeat in their last 15 Professional League matches, a record they will now hold, but not with pride. To those negative numbers, you can add two draws (Rosario Central and Vélez) and just three wins (Talleres, Barracas Central, and Gimnasia).

For now, this completely forgettable record puts them in the lead, although behind—not far off—come Newell’s and Atlético Tucumán, both with 9 losses in 15 matches. However, the reality of these teams is completely different from River’s, both institutionally, economically, and in terms of squad quality.

Marcelo Gallardo’s tenure as manager is in doubt

The coach, who canceled the press conference after the defeat against Vélez, is analyzing his future, according to Doble Amarilla.

The “Muñeco,” who avoided questions and talking about whether he still has the strength to continue, is going through decisive hours regarding his future, and this Monday could be a key day.

The “Millonario” returns to action and it’s not ruled out that the coach will meet with Stefano Di Carlo to discuss the continuity (or not) of a tenure that, since the elimination by Palmeiras, has been shaky.
