Wanchope Ábila and Colo Gil clash splits Huracán squad | OneFootball

Amid the conflict with Toranzo-Mendoza, if there was anything missing from Huracán’s turbulent present, it’s the division in the locker room, which arose after a clash between Ramón “Wanchope” Ábila and Leonardo “Colo” Gil. While the incident didn’t escalate further, it did involve strong recriminations.

After a remarkable start to the year, reaching the final of the Torneo Apertura and putting on a good performance in the Copa Sudamericana, the second half of the season did not go as expected: the team was eliminated from the continental tournament and is now on the verge of missing out on the Clausura playoffs and international cups.

To have a shot at the playoffs and the Copa Sudamericana, they must win and wait for other results, but the outlook is not promising, as internally, the squad is divided due to a break in the locker room.

After the match against Newell’s, which ended in a 2-0 defeat for the “Globo”, Leonardo “Colo” Gil—who is identified with Rosario Central—left the field shouting, reportedly accusing his teammates of “not giving their all”. It’s worth noting that if “La Lepra” had lost, their place in the First Division would have been at risk.

Images of what happened quickly went viral, and this did not go down well within the squad. This situation led to “Wanchope” Ábila confronting the midfielder, expressing his displeasure and warning him that he would not tolerate having his will to win questioned. He also demanded that Gil immediately clarify what had happened.

The atmosphere heated up and became tense, but fortunately, it did not escalate further. In fact, hours later, Gil shared a story on his Instagram account assuring that he would never question the “honorability” of his teammates.
