San Lorenzo focus on Rosario: Romaña fit, Tripichio out for la Lepra | OneFootball

After the draw in their cup debut against Recoleta, the azulgrana squad returned to training. The Colombian center-back trained alongside the group and is shaping up for a return, while Tripichio will be unavailable after picking up his fifth yellow card. On Sunday, El Ciclón faces Larriera’s side.

After the 1-1 draw in their international opener, the Boedo side is already focused on the Apertura Tournament. This Friday morning, the squad resumed training with next Sunday’s visit to Newell’s in mind for Matchday 14, a key clash to avoid losing ground in the domestic league.

Today’s session was shaped by physical recovery after the strain of the trip, but it also brought news that will put a smile on Álvarez’s face: Jhohan Romaña trained alongside his teammates. The Colombian, who was rested in the cup to avoid taking any risks, appears to have recovered from his muscle issue and would regain his spot in central defense.

However, it’s not all good news for El Ciclón. Nicolás Tripichio will miss the trip to Rosario. Although the midfielder is dealing with a fractured toe, what actually rules him out is his fifth yellow card. With this significant absence, the coach is considering two names to fill the midfield role: Ignacio Perruzzi or Gonzalo Abrego.

The team will meet again early Saturday morning for the final tactical work. After lunch, the delegation will travel by bus to Rosario and stay together ahead of Sunday’s match at 3:00 p.m. at the Coloso Marcelo Bielsa.
