In the second practice of the week of Boca’s team it could be seen that coach Ricardo La Volpe, as is his habit, decided to have a casual soccer game carried out. Generally the man of the big moustache does so on Thursday, and it is only then that the lineup of the first division team for Sunday begins to shape up.

The most important news at Casa Amarilla is that forward Guillermo Barros Schelotto –recovered from a tear- played with the regular players who on Sunday will face Lanús to decide who will be the winner of the Apertura tournament.

With respect to the participation of Boca’s idol among the eleven players that will step out on the field, the coach admitted that “it wouldn’t be ideal to put him on the field right from the start, it might be better to do so in the final stages of the game”, referring to his possible lack of fitness after his injury.

Turning the page, La Volpe addressed the defeat Boca suffered in Córdoba which postponed the materialization of the so much sought after triple championship.

“We continue to work, it’s all in the mind. I don’t really know what happened to us with Belgrano” he explained.

Finally, when the former goalkeeper was asked regarding the possible reinforcements which might arrive at the team in 2007, the coach said that “I can’t talk about any hiring of players out of respect for the present team. I have to get together with the managers.-
