Patronato’s current situation in the Primera Nacional became critical after a 2-0 defeat to Gimnasia y Esgrima de Jujuy. The result not only sank the team to the bottom of Zone B, but also put its coach, Rubén Darío Forestello, in the spotlight and left his future in charge of the professional squad uncertain.

A worrying situation in the numbers

With only five points collected so far in the tournament, the “Rojinegro” is going through a deep sporting crisis. The gap to the top spots widened precisely against the Jujuy “Lobo,” which, with this win, established itself as one of the group’s leaders, worsening the outlook for the Entre Ríos side.

The coach’s words: uncertainty and self-criticism

After the match, Forestello appeared visibly affected and did not hide the possibility of stepping aside. “Things are not working out. I have to think about what I’m going to do,” said the coach, raising alarm bells about his possible resignation.

Despite the unfavorable scoreline, the coach defended his players’ performance:

  • Improvement in play: “We lost differently. We created chances we didn’t have before,” he said, trying to highlight the team’s progress in its play.
  • Commitment: He stressed that “the players gave everything,” although he acknowledged that the effort is not translating into the points needed to climb off the bottom of the table.

Experience vs. Wear and tear

Drawing on his experience, Forestello recalled that this is not the first time he has faced situations like this: “These are situations I’ve already gone through at other clubs. You have to be smart to get out of this.” However, the strain caused by the lack of results seems to have taken a deep toll, leaving the final decision about whether he will stay on hold for the next few hours.
