Enzo Copetti’s Angry Attack

Rosario Central managed to recover from the painful elimination in the round of 16 of the Copa Sudamericana against Fortaleza of Brazil, with a tight victory against Atlético Tucumán . Juan Giménez ‘s goal put the final figures to the match, valid for the 12th date of the Professional League, which deprived the Decano of the possibility of accessing the top of the domestic championship.

Although it was a back-and-forth spectacle, in which both teams did their part to earn the three points, the general attention of the public was installed in the 36th minute of the second half , when Matías Lequi decided to replace Enzo Copetti with Luca Martinez Dupuy, when the match was still tied with the score at 0-0. At that moment, when the former Racing striker left the field of play, he starred in an attack of rage in which he exploded with a childish reaction that ended with a cascade of punches against the substitutes’ bench.

What was striking was that neither the coach nor his teammates came close to containing the man from Chaco with a past in Major League Soccer. Although it was an act of impotence, due to the number of wasted situations against his northern rival, the interim coach who replaced Miguel Ángel Russo will probably take action on the matter in the immediate future.

As for the match itself, Atlético Tucumán showed up at the Gigante de Arroyito hoping to climb to the top of the Liga Profesional and take the lead from Vélez and Huracán . However, Rosario Central put up a fight and faced the match on matchday 12 with all the material at its disposal. Despite the recent elimination from the Copa Sudamericana in the round of 16 against Fortaleza of Brazil, Canalla showed good signs with the offense composed of Jaminton Campaz , Ignacio Malcorra and Enzo Copetti . Even some actions that the Colombian did not resolve properly could have served the former Racing striker the goal.
