Colombian defender for San Lorenzo, Jhohan Romaña, suffered a tear in the 1-0 victory against Central Córdoba from Santiago del Estero on Saturday and will miss the classic against Huracán on matchday 4 of the 2026 Argentine Primera División Apertura tournament. As reported by the Argentine News Agency, the 'Cyclone' beat the 'Railwayman' last Saturday with a goal from Gregorio Rodríguez and heads into the classic against the 'Globe' on a two-game winning streak, aiming for a victory that would boost them for the remainder of the Apertura's first stage. However, Damián Ayude's team did not start the week's preparation for the classic on the best foot, as the tear of the Colombian defender and team captain Jhohan Romaña was confirmed. Due to this injury, he will miss the match against Huracán. The player from the Colombian department of Antioquia finished the first half against Central Córdoba with visible signs of pain, holding the back of his left leg. Ultimately, coach Ayude decided not to let him play the second half, causing concern among all San Lorenzo fans. 'We have to wait for the tests. The area is still very inflamed, and we will see what he has,' the coach declared post-match. In this context, Ayude will have to rebuild the defense for the classic against Huracán. At least in the second half against the Santiago team, Ezequiel Herrera moved from right-back to central defense with Romaña's exit, while Fabricio López came in to occupy the right side. Another option the coach is considering is the debut of the Uruguayan reinforcement Guzmán Corujo, who was not called up for the Central Córdoba match as he continues his physical training to be ready when Ayude needs him.
