The version claims that Boca managed to impose a scheme favorable to its interests. In sports, San Lorenzo defeated Tigre 2-1 on December 17, Boca beat the Cyclón on the 20th, and the title was decided on the 23rd between Boca and Tigre, with the consecration of the Ribera team in Avellaneda. Almost twenty years after that outcome, the episode regained visibility following a clash between former leaders and the return of Moretti to the public sphere, in a context still sensitive for the blue-and-gold world. “They sent that one to you to buy for you and Savino in the 2008 triangular,” he posted, referring to a version that was never officially confirmed but remains entrenched in the fan's imagination of San Lorenzo. The reference is to the definition of the 2008 Apertura Tournament, when San Lorenzo, Boca, and Tigre finished tied with 39 points and had to play a triangular to decide the champion. In the lead-up, the club's board members met at the AFA to agree on the playoff format. According to the account that has resurfaced, Savino was allegedly temporarily excluded from the discussion under the pretext of going to buy food, which would have allowed the playoff system to be resolved without the effective participation of San Lorenzo. Buenos Aires, Jan 17 (NA) -- Marcelo Moretti was once again at the center of the public scene after his departure from the presidency of San Lorenzo, following a clash on social networks with a former club leader, an exchange that revived an old controversy linked to the definition of the 2008 Apertura Tournament and the figure of Rafael Savino. The former manager of the Cyclón reappeared in an interview with a party-aligned medium, which was his first public appearance since leaving his post. The appearance had a quick repercussion among fans and led to a virtual discussion that once again brought up sensitive episodes in the institution's recent history. The controversy broke out on the social network X, after Héctor Viesca, who was the club's manager during Savino's tenure, commented ironically on an image of Moretti holding a pizza box. “The attitude: disinhibition in its maximum expression,” wrote the former leader in a message aimed directly at the former president. Moretti's response was not long in coming and appealed to a controversial historical reference: “It's not a pizza, Héctor.”
