Gallardo loses his main striker: Driussi suffers muscle tear

Sebastián Driussi suffered a grade I tear in his left hamstring and will be off the field for approximately three weeks. The forward had to leave during the first half of the goalless draw against Rosario Central, and tests confirmed the injury.

The attacker will miss the matches against Tigre and Argentinos in the Torneo Apertura, as well as the clash against Ciudad Bolívar in the Copa Argentina. At River, they are aiming for him to be able to return and get minutes only against Vélez, on February 22.
