In that crazy run at the end, in that effusive hug, in that wild celebration of the players facing the stands, in those screams that mixed with the screams of the fans, the illusion of a team that is encouraged and also invites you to dream. Central Córdoba from Santiago del Estero dispatched Huracán in San Nicolás and reached an Argentine Cup final for the second time in its history. An instance that had reached in 2019, when they lost 3-0 against Marcelo Gallardo’s River at the Malvinas Argentinas stadium in Mendoza. Now He will go for revenge against the winner of the series between Boca and Vélez.
Central Córdoba beat Huracán 2-1 and reached the final of the Argentine Cup
It was a deserved victory for the Ferroviario, which was superior to a faded Globe, without elaboration or ideas. A victory that confirmed what at this point is an unappealable truth: it is in this competition where the lower class of Argentine football has the best chance of sitting at the table of the greats. Omar De Felippe has reasons to burst his heart with pride. The 62-year-old experienced coach took charge on the 9th round of the League, after the departure of Lucas González Vélez. The team, which started the tournament with eight losses in the first nine rounds, had a miraculous resurrection. Central Córdoba has 12 games without suffering defeats, it underwent a rapid process of metamorphosis. Now they have seven consecutive wins in all competitions and excite their fans with achieving glory. And with qualifying for the Copa Libertadores for the first time in its history, since this competition grants a ticket to compete in the highest continental competition.
“Felippe told us his experiences and we threw our heads behind him. “We ate shit for a long time, but now we want to get to the top”commented Lucas Abascia. And his words symbolized the general feeling of a group that became strong in adversity and that demonstrated it again against Huracán. A duel in which they started down after a tremendous right hand from De la Fuente, but which was able to turn it around with the brilliance of Atencio, who put together a barbaric play for the tie and hit a great center with a screw to Florentín to turn it around. In the second half, De Felippe put together a line of five and Huracán, who threw all his offensive weapons on the field with Wanchope Ábila, Alfonso and Cabral, did not find a way to break a solid, compact, orderly, and very rigorous rival. tactical and physical.
“We were bad and we all got together to talk. We broke the boys’ balls a lot and, with our limitations, we prepared ourselves to be better. We had a lot of fun. You don’t have to be afraid, you have to believe. I don’t have much marketing, but here the smoke sometimes goes out with water”commented De Felippe, the architect of a surprising complex.
El Ferroviario, which has already left Quilmes, Estudiantes, Newell’s, Temperley and El Globo on its way, will now go for glory, the one that escaped him in 2019 and that now he doesn’t want to let go.
