Buenos Aires, Dec 8 (NA) – Outlets loyal to Estudiantes de La Plata reported that upon arriving at the Juan Carmelo Zerillo stadium for the clásico against Gimnasia, the broadcast booths were found filled with salt. This Monday, starting at 5:00 PM with live coverage from the Argentine News Agency (Agencia Noticias Argentinas), Gimnasia will host Estudiantes in the framework of the Platense clásico, the semifinal of the Professional Football League's Closing Tournament. Undoubtedly, 'The Wolf' sees this match as a unique opportunity to make a historic statement in the Platense clásico and advance to the championship final. During the week, cursed dolls appeared at the gates of the Jorge Luis Hirschi stadium, in response to this, the entrances to the Juan Carmelo Zerillo stadium were filled with salt, aiming to 'muflar' (jinx) their rival.
