Boca once again dropped points at La Bombonera. The 1-1 draw against San Lorenzo halted the momentum the team had gained after the 3-0 win against Lanús and exposed a problem that still has no solution: the right-back position.

Gregorio Rodríguez's goal came precisely from that sector. The play once again pointed to Weigandt, who was booed by part of the fans and ended up at the center of criticism.

Chelo was once again a starter due to Barinaga's injury and has now played five matches since his return after the loan at Inter Miami. During this period, the team hasn't lost, but it hasn't convinced with its play either, and the right-back position remains unsettled.

Barinaga, who started the cycle as a starter, also failed to establish himself. That's why part of the public is asking for more minutes for Dylan Gorosito, a right-back who came up through the youth ranks and has experience with the youth national teams. So far, he has only played 15 minutes in the match against Gimnasia de Chivilcoy for the Copa Argentina.

The last standout right-back was Luis Advíncula in 2023. A key player in Almirón's team, even playing as a winger in some matches, and scoring four goals in the Copa Libertadores, including one in the final.

Another option in the squad was Lucas Blondel, although the coaching staff decided to loan him to Huracán after several months without playing. While Boca tries to regain consistency, the right-back position remains an unresolved question for the team.
