This is the toughest defeat in my 12 years in charge. In the First Division, results define the club's future. Wearing the Estudiantes de Río Cuarto jersey is non-negotiable. At a loss for words,” he wrote on his Instagram account. The start of the Opening Tournament has been far from expectations for the Lion of the Empire, who has managed only one draw and four defeats in their first five matches. The return to the top tier of Argentine football, celebrated as an institutional achievement, has quickly turned into concern over performance and a lack of results. In this context, the focus is beginning to shift to the coach, Iván Delfino.
