Coach Sebastián Domínguez resigned from his position at Vélez after the 2-0 defeat against Huracán in the eighth round of the 2025 Apertura Tournament. Domínguez had taken the position after his departure from Tigre, replacing Gustavo Quinteros. During his tenure, the team did not achieve victories in the eight matches played and did not score any goals, an unusual streak for the club.
The only win during Domínguez's brief period at Vélez was in the Copa Argentina against Midland, with a penalty goal converted by Braian Romero. After that match, Romero showed his support for the coach by embracing him. Despite hopes that this victory would positively influence the team, the defeat against Huracán confirmed the difficulties and led to Domínguez's resignation.
The club's management is already searching for a new coach, considering Sebastián Méndez, Hernán Crespo, and Gabriel Milito as potential candidates. Domínguez's resignation was communicated to the players in the locker room after the match against Huracán when he decided to step down. Although he did not make statements to the press, his departure marks the end of a cycle characterized by negative results at Vélez.
