On the eve of this Sunday’s crucial 3:30 p.m. clash against Colón for Round 22 of the Primera Nacional, specialized journalist Fabrizio Cimbaro spoke with Radio Gol 96.7 to break down the current state of a Chaco For Ever side that arrives in the midst of a resurgence, with Javier Delbarba already confirmed as the referee.
The team from Chaco is going through days of drizzle and cold in Resistencia, which forced some training sessions to be moved onto artificial turf, but that has not slowed the hopes of a squad riding high after taking seven of the last nine points available, including an emphatic 3-1 away win over San Telmo.
Cimbaro stressed that Chaco For Ever’s main institutional objective is to hold onto its place and secure survival in the division. For this “crusade,” the arrival of club legend Daniel “Chango” Cravero on the bench — a top idol who recently overcame a delicate health issue — had an immediate impact both emotionally and football-wise.
“In these two matches under Cravero, For Ever has changed tremendously. Several of his instructions were: ‘Guys, keep it simple, don’t overcomplicate things.’ When you’re near the bottom of the table, your subconscious works against you. Now the team is trying to keep the ball and minimize mistakes.”
In addition, the journalist praised the club’s excellent optimization of its financial resources, managing to strengthen the squad with low-cost signings who delivered immediate results. He highlighted the impact of Leandro Fernández (former Villa Mitre) as a standout player, the balance Federico Moreno brought in midfield after the departure of Gabriel Ramírez, and the key role of Matías Romero, who scored three goals in two matches and became a huge breath of fresh air for the back line.
Regarding the tactical plan for the visit to the Elephants’ Graveyard, Cimbaro detailed the coach’s pragmatic philosophy: “Daniel’s way of managing matches is pretty simple: if you can win it, you win it; if not, you draw it. An away draw is highly valued because one point is worth more than none in the Primera Nacional.”
Without expecting major tactical changes from the team that just won at Isla Maciel, the reporter revealed the likely starting eleven to face El Sabalero: Gastón Canuto; Alan Luque, David Valdéz, Ricardo Garay Lima, Agustín Ojeda; Enzo Gaggi, Juan Manuel Carrizo, Brian Nievas, Leandro Fernández; Matías Romero and Ezequiel Pacheco.
