Quintero makes his case and forces River to rethink their plans | OneFootball

The Colombian is already recovered and could make it into the starting 11 against Estudiantes de Río Cuarto.

Juanfer has already put his injury behind him and has been getting minutes off the bench, but he has not yet started in this new cycle. Now, with more rhythm, he appears as a real option to be in the starting lineup against Estudiantes de Río Cuarto.

So far, Chacho has opted for a more intense and balanced team, prioritizing pressing and order. However, in the first matches, there was a sense that creativity was lacking in the final third.

That’s where Quintero comes in. His ability to find spaces and create play makes him a different kind of alternative, especially considering an opponent that could sit back.

The question is whether to maintain the team’s balance or to add more offensive talent from the start. That’s why Coudet’s decision is significant: keep the base or give a spot to a different kind of player.
