🎙️Russo: "We're under pressure to beat Racing"
"For us, it's important to win and we know we'll be facing a tough opponent. We have to be prepared for everything. This is Boca. Nothing changes. We've been talking a lot individually and as a group. I think we're doing well and that's the most important thing. This is always Boca. You have the obligation to win. We have to be convinced of that and we're working towards it. I'm very happy with the group."On the other hand, he also talked about the recent interview his son, Ignacio Russo, gave about the rumor that his family disapproved of him being the coach of Boca, considering what that entails.
"Leave my son alone. My son will talk about himself and Tigre. He's matured a lot and is doing well. Don't look for things that aren't there. He has a different mentality."
Finally, he referred to the controversy that arose with Merentiel in the match against Huracán.
"I spoke with everyone. Here, a world is made without knowing what a squad is and without knowing my management style and methods. (With Merentiel) there wasn't much to clarify."

🎙️Serna on exit: I was offered another role but turned it down
Today, Boca has officially announced the departure of Mauricio "Chicho" Serna and Raúl Cascini. In response, the Colombian, who was the spokesperson for the Football Council since its creation, stepped forward and made it clear that he gave it his all. "It hasn't been easy, you know what this club means to me and my family, but life is about decisions, sometimes we get it right and many times we make mistakes. I held nothing back, I gave the best I had to give. It's a difficult moment, but just as one day the President invited me to be part of his work group, I was grateful and gave everything, today I am honest and have to say that I gave it all. I have been offered to be in another area of the club and I made the decision NOT TO ACCEPT it because I believe it wouldn't be convenient. I prefer to say goodbye and thank everyone and say, this has come to an end. Thank you very much, I love the fans, but that's life and now, it's my turn. Bye, thank you."Meanwhile, the next step will be to resolve the future of Miguel Ángel Russo. Rumors suggest that if he doesn't manage to beat Racing, his third cycle as the club's coach could be interrupted. This article was translated into English by Artificial Intelligence.

'Not acceptable!' - Argentine FA accused of breaking £15m Lionel Messi visit agreement by Kerala government's commercial partner
Kerala hoping to host Messi and Argentina Friendlies scheduled as part of £15m deal AFA accused of breaking contract Follow GOAL on WhatsApp! 🟢📱 WHAT HAPPENED? The Kerala government had been hoping to bring Messi and Argentina to the state in 2025. Anto Augustine, the managing director of the firm overseeing the deal, has now accused the AFA of breaking a contract to bring Messi and his team-mates for a visit and to play two friendlies during international windows in October and November. THE BIGGER PICTURE Augustine has also said that ₹130 crore ($15 million) was paid to the AFA in June as part of the agreement. "They confirmed the receipt of the payment and thanked us for our patience," he told Manorama Online. He also claimed that Argentina want to reschedule and are not now planning on making the trip this year. WHAT HAS BEEN SAID Augustine added: "But now they are saying, how about September 2026? That is not ok for us. The World Cup is scheduled to begin in June, and we are not sure if Argentina will be world champions again. The deal was to have the 2022 world champions play in Kerala this year." Kerala's Sports Minister V Abdurahiman has also rejected Argentina's plans to reschedule: "If they had agreed to come in October, then they should stick to that schedule. Next year is an election year, and their proposal to play in March is not acceptable."DID YOU KNOW? While Messi does not look set to visit Kerala as previously expected, he is due to visit India in December. The Inter Miami star is expected to take in trips to Kolkata, Ahmedabad, Mumbai and New Delhi during his time in the country. WHAT NEXT FOR ARGENTINA? Argentina's next matches are in September when Lionel Scaloni's side are due to face Venezuela and Ecuador in World Cup qualifying.
