VIDEO: Boca’s bad luck in goal, Marchesín out, then Brey, García on | OneFootball

Serious problems in Boca’s goal. To the ligament tear suffered by Agustín Marchesín is now added the injury to his backup and, for several weeks now, the new owner of the Xeneize goal: Leandro Brey.

The former Los Andes player left the Copa Libertadores match against Barcelona de Guayaquil with an injury in the abdominal area and had to be replaced by Javier García. Here’s everything that is known about his physical issue.

Leandro Brey’s injury: What happened to Boca’s goalkeeper?

Brey left the match against Barcelona de Guayaquil, played on Tuesday, May 5, after suffering a blow to the abdominal area from Byron Castillo while challenging for the ball in the box.

Boca’s goalkeeper received treatment, showing clear signs of pain, and was quickly replaced. Javier García came on in his place, and had not played in an official match since 2024. For now, it is not yet known exactly what injury Brey suffered.

As a result, Boca is left without its two main goalkeepers for the rest of the semester. Although they will be able to look for a reinforcement in the next transfer window, the team from La Ribera will close out the Libertadores group stage and the 2026 Apertura in a completely unfavorable situation when it comes to the goalkeeping position.
