The record Coudet is chasing at River | OneFootball

With the 3-0 win over Belgrano, Chacho entered a list of only five coaches in River’s history who managed victories in this many matches.

Eduardo Coudet has begun his spell as River manager in the best possible way: he has coached four and won four. This record placed him in a select group of eight River coaches who started their time at the club in the same fashion.

Coudet made his debut on March 15 with a 2-1 victory over Huracán in Parque Patricios. Four days later, he earned a convincing 2-0 win against Sarmiento de Junín. He then claimed another victory by the same score against Estudiantes de Río Cuarto in Córdoba, and this Sunday he thrashed Belgrano 3-0 at the Monumental.

These results put him in a prestigious place in the history books, as he matched the mark set by Mostaza Merlo in 1989, Juan Eulogio Urriolabeitia in 1972, Didí in 1970, and Arnoldo Watson Hutton in 1934, who holds the all-time record with five straight wins at the start of his tenure.

It is worth noting that Ramón Díaz also recorded four straight victories, but they came at the start of his third spell, between late 2012 and early 2013. The same happened with José María Minella in 1963, during his second stint.

Next Wednesday at 9:30 p.m., against Blooming in River’s Copa Sudamericana opener, Chacho will have the chance to reach a fifth consecutive win, and after that he will face Racing at the Cilindro. Will he be able to match and break the record?
