Buenos Aires, April 6 (NA) — Fernando Lucho Zaniratto spoke out publicly following his departure from Gimnasia y Esgrima La Plata. He expressed his displeasure with the leadership's decision in an emotional Instagram post, clearly stating his position on the end of his tenure. According to the Argentine News Agency, the now-former coach spoke of an 'inexplicable sadness' and questioned the timing of his dismissal. 'They are kicking me out of the club, my home, at the first sign of a bad moment,' he wrote, also noting that he had taken responsibility for the team's recent poor run of form. In his defense, Zaniratto defended the process he was leading and criticized the 'lack of memory' in the analysis. 'A few days ago we were a phenomenon and we were in the top eight, we lost and the cycle is over,' he stated, while insisting it was a 'medium and long-term' project, something he claims was not respected. Finally, the coach concluded his message with a direct plea: 'Please, be consistent,' making evident his disagreement with the decision. His departure comes at a complex time for the La Plata team, which is going through a series of bad results and has been knocked out of the qualifying zone in Zone B.
