Complications for Vélez in their Torneo Apertura debut

The Vélez team will host Platense for the second matchday of the Apertura Tournament; however, the field at the Estadio José Amalfitani is not in the best condition. The grass is in poor shape due to delays in the preparations ahead of the championship kick-off.

This problem is compounded by Joaquín Garcia's injury in the first match and the departure of important players from the team. Additionally, there is a recent issue with Mateo Pellegrino. The condition of the playing field poses a risk to the players, as an injury to any of the participants in the match could have serious repercussions for the team.
