Tarragona to start for Unión, all doubts cleared for Gimnasia trip | OneFootball

After alarms were raised over his absence from Wednesday’s football practice, Unión brought calm: Cristian Tarragona will start this Saturday against Gimnasia de Mendoza in the third round of the Clausura Tournament. The striker is dealing with a muscle issue, but the decision to rest him was solely due to a reduced workload to avoid greater risks.

The red-and-white top scorer did not take part in the football session led by Leonardo Madelón, a situation that created uncertainty about his presence for the match in Mendoza. However, the coaching staff confirmed that the forward has progressed favorably and will return to training normally starting this Thursday.

In this way, Tarragona will be in the starting lineup for a key match for El Tatengue, where he is expected to form the attacking duo alongside Mauro Luna Diale. In addition, the club’s management continues working to lift the restrictions that would allow the coach to count on the new signings during this stage of the tournament.

The presence of their main attacking reference is good news for Madelón, who is looking to earn a positive result away from home and maintain the team’s footballing progress at the start of the Clausura.
