Barracas welcome Leandro Paredes with banner before Boca clash | OneFootball

Just moments before the match between Barracas Central and Boca for date 12 of the Torneo Clausura, a game postponed due to the unfortunate passing of Miguel Ángel Russo just a few weeks ago, an unexpected moment occurred. The Guapo took it upon themselves to pay tribute to Leandro Paredes with a very special banner.

Although this is a crucial match for both teams, where they need to secure all three points to climb several spots in the league standings and do the same in the annual table with an eye on qualifying for upcoming international competitions, there was still time before kickoff for a tribute to the Xeneize midfielder.

The fact is that Barracas Central dedicated a banner to Paredes. With the clear intention of honoring him, behind one of the goals the home fans hung a flag for the player in question. “Welcome home, world champion,” it read, referring to the footballer who triumphed with the Argentina National Team at the 2022 World Cup held in Qatar.
