With cold weather forecast for tomorrow in Mendoza, Independiente Rivadavia is getting ready to host Unión in the Round of 16 of the Torneo Apertura, this Saturday at 9:30 p.m. at the Gargantini.

This morning, Diego Bautista, a journalist for Los Andes, spoke with Darío Pignata on ADN Gol and painted a picture of the historic moment Alfredo Berti’s team is going through.

Highlights from the interview:

  1. “The best Independiente Rivadavia in history.” “Alex Arce has 41 goals in 63 matches... an absolute beast, insane.” “Unión has some of the most important, or best, full-backs in Argentine football.” “Independiente plays with an intensity that makes you say, how does this team manage to avoid injuries?” “It’s a team built to sit deep in 30 meters... win the ball back quickly and hit on the counter.” “At the Gargantini, the pressure is higher; I think they’ll press Unión a little higher up.” “They ruled out giving Unión a section because Independiente draws 20,000 people and the stadium is too small for them.”
