Before the reserve match against Newell’s, Antonio ‘Chipi’ Barijho suffered a health scare and worried everyone present at the Ezeiza training ground. Since he had to be taken by ambulance to a medical center, the start of the match was delayed and all eyes were on his health condition.
The coach of the seventh division was at the training ground to watch the match that some of his players were going to play against the team from Rosario, but he began to feel unwell and told his colleagues, who, as usual, all arrive together to watch the kids. Antonio ‘Chipi’ Barijho felt a sharp pain in his chest and asked for medical assistance.

Quickly, Chipi Barijho was taken by ambulance to a medical center, specifically to the Monte Grande clinic, where he underwent tests. Around 9 p.m., he underwent angioplasty to have a stent placed right there.
Fortunately, everything went well and his son was the one who brought reassurance: “Thank you so much to everyone for the messages, to everyone who was concerned about my dad. Thank God everything went well. There’s Chipi for a while yet,” he wrote in a story shared on his Instagram account along with a photo in the clinic surrounded by his family.
