Without a doubt, one of the hottest topics in recent weeks for Xeneize has been the departure of Fernando Gago and the subsequent arrival of Mariano Herrón. Although he takes over as interim, it has already been confirmed that he will direct all the matches to be played in the Apertura playoffs.
Faced with this, Ander told us how he saw the arrival of his new coach and his total commitment to making it work.
Mariano has an enormous illusion. He is a person from the house. He wants to help the club try to fight for this title. I have the best relationship. I will try to help him from my point of view. We have had a couple of conversations and I am here to add, to enjoy this experience in Boca and always thinking about the group. Whatever is in my power to help the club, the team, I will do it.
The first big test for the blue and gold team will be this Saturday from 9:00 PM when they host Lanús in the Bombonera for the round of 16.
Ander Herrera has partnered with Enterprise Rent-A-Car, official sponsor of the UEFA Europa League and the Conference League, for their latest campaign "Rent-A-Player". Whether you need a car for a weekend getaway or a replacement while yours is in the shop, Enterprise has you covered with 22 branches in Argentina.

Scott Barrett returns from injury to captain the All Blacks against the Pumas
WELLINGTON, New Zealand (AP) — Lock Scott Barrett will return from injury to captain the All Blacks in their opening Rugby Championship match on Saturday against Argentina at Córdoba. Barrett was injured in the first test of New Zealand's series against France last month and missed the second and third tests as New Zealand completed a 3-0 series sweep. He returns to reclaim the captaincy from Ardie Savea in Saturday's test, among an experienced lineup named by head coach Scott Robertson. Savea will play his 98th test in the No. 8 jersey, combining in the backrow with Du'Plessis Kirifi on the openside flank and Tupou Vaa'i, who returns from injury on the blindside. Vaa'i displaces Samipeni Finau, who moves to the bench. Beauden Barrett returns from a hand injury at flyhalf and will combine with scrumhalf Cortez Ratima, who is promoted to the starting 15 in the absence of Cam Roigard and Noah Hotham, who are both injured. Finlay Christie has been named as the scrumhalf replacement and will start on the bench along with Damian McKenzie. Christie, center Anton Lienert-Brown and McKenzie bring a combined 172 test caps to a strong bench. Robertson has retained the midfield combination of Jordie Barrett and Billy Proctor, naming Rieko Ioane on the left wing. Prop Tamaiti Williams and backrower Wallace Sititi are still on the injured list. 'We've had a great week of training in Buenos Aires and the group is ready to go out and perform," Robertson said. "Scott (Barrett) and our leaders have led from the front and there's a lot of focus and motivation in the group for the start of the campaign. 'We know the Pumas identity is a fast and physical game and we've selected a team that will embrace the occasion," he added. "It's been 30 years since the All Blacks played in Córdoba and we are looking forward to the passion and energy of the home crowd.' The All Blacks lost at home to Argentina in last year's Rugby Championship, putting them on guard ahead of Saturday's match. Hooker Julian Montoya will captain Argentina in his 109th test. Fulback Juan Cruz Mallia and veteran backrower Pablo Matera have been named as vice-captains. The Pumas will be playing their first test in Córdoba in 11 years. Pedro Delgado has retained his place at prop for his fifth test and Gonzalo Garcia will start at scrumhalf, combining with Tomas Albornoz who will start again at flyhalf. Rodrigo Isgro has been named to start on the right wing. ___ AP rugby:
