Gonzalo Montiel and Marcos Acuña both had fitness issues with River Plate but they are not injured.
Montiel felt a hamstring strain during River Plate’s warmup and did not start their match against Gimnasia de la Plata. Marcos Acuña started the match for River Plate but was substituted out with discomfort in one of his ankles.
River Plate coach Eduardo Coudet spoke to the media after the match. Here is what he had to say:
“Acuña and Montiel do not have injuries their discomforts do not appear to be significant. We didn’t want to take any risks because we are playing again in three days.”
