The side suffered a torn right hamstring and will have 20 days of recovery. Moreover, in Peru they want to be cared for him to try to be in the playoffs with selecting him on June 13, so he too would be in the second round (against Central Córdoba on June 12).

He would also not be in the second game against the railway on June 12.
Óscar Romero cannot be taken into account by Battaglia either, since he will play a couple of friendlies on the next FIFA date and Guillermo Barros Schelotto called him up. The Paraguayan National Team will play next Thursday, June 2, against Japan at the Sapporo Dome stadium and on the 10th it will face South Korea, at the Suwon FC stadium. The Professional League is scheduled to start on June 5. Romero would not be present against Arsenal or Central Córdoba.
