Madelón readies for Newell’s: Vargas back, one absentee confirmed | OneFootball

The team had an unusual practice yesterday in the rain and is finalizing details for the match. Vargas returns after suspension, and Misael Aguirre has been ruled out.

Madelón changed his plans and held a training session in the rain, combining work on the field and in the gym. The initial idea was focused on physical care, but the conditions led to a different kind of practice ahead of the clash against Newell’s.

From a football standpoint, there is one return and one absence. Vargas returns after serving a suspension for five yellow cards, while Misael Aguirre has been ruled out due to ankle discomfort and will undergo tests in the coming hours. His availability for the next match against Vélez Sarsfield is also in doubt.

Another question mark is Diego Armando Díaz, who is only just making it back physically. The player was injured on the Saturday before the Copa Argentina match and has still not completed the full three weeks of recovery, so his availability remains uncertain.

As for bookings, Marcelo Estigarribia has accumulated four yellow cards and is one away from suspension. On three are Cuello, Palacios and Cristian Tarragona, in the final stretch of the season with three rounds remaining before the suspensions are wiped clean. The match will be officiated by Fernando Espinoza, with Yamil Possi in charge of VAR.

In addition, the day will feature special activities for the club’s anniversary. Starting at 6 p.m., the lead-up to the postponed 119th anniversary celebration will begin, with live performances from 6:30 p.m. by Rompiendo Espejos and Los Llamadores
