Boca’s ins and outs in the squad to face Huracán | OneFootball

After the final training session before the match against Huracán, Claudio Úbeda announced the list of called-up players that Boca will have. The head coach decided to have 24 players available for the round of 16 clash.

The Xeneize squad trained on a cold morning in Ezeiza, where they finalized the details for tomorrow’s match at La Bombonera. The players did light work with the traditional foot tennis and then a small-sided game, where Sifón tested the team.

After training, Boca’s coach decided that Leandro Brey and Javier García will be the only goalkeepers available, since the former Los Andes man responded well to the physical demands after the discomfort he suffered in Guayaquil. That suggests he will be in the starting lineup against Globo.

Ander Herrera is the main new addition. The Basque midfielder recovered in record time from the muscle tear he suffered against Defensa y Justicia and could get some minutes off the bench. As for the absences, Fernando Rodríguez remains out of the squad, as does Lucas Janson. Also out injured are Edinson Cavani, Carlos Palacios, Rodrigo Battaglia, and Agustín Marchesín.
