River received a hard blow in the Superclasico preview. Fausto Vera and Juan Fernando Quintero were ruled out due to injury and will not be able to face Boca next Sunday at
Monumental.The discomfort occurred during the victory against Carabobo in the Copa Sudamericana and were confirmed after medical studies carried out this Thursday.
The center midfielder suffered a grade two sprain of the medial collateral ligament in his right knee, while the Colombian suffered a strain, or minor tear, in his left psoas.The most sensitive loss is that of Vera, who could be between four and eight weeks off the court, with a chance of reappearing only in the second semester. The steering wheel was injured 20 minutes into the first half after a collision with Eric Ramírez and, although he tried to continue, he had to leave because of the pain. The former Argentinos Juniors had established himself as a fixture in Eduardo Coudet's scheme, so his absence leaves a significant gap
