River Plate's coach, Marcelo Gallardo, commented on the team's heavy 4-1 defeat against Tigre in the fourth round of the championship. He stated that such a result 'is not acceptable, but it can happen.' Gallardo noted that the team had been showing good progress but made many mistakes in this match, which led to the loss. 'In terms of how we were evolving as a team, I think today nothing went right for us. We made a lot of mistakes, and Tigre took full advantage. A very bad night,' the coach said. He added that analysis, especially of individual errors, is done internally. 'The team's performance failed today. We were on an upward trajectory,' Gallardo concluded. Additionally, the River coach addressed the whistles directed at his players, particularly Facundo Colidio, Maximiliano Salas, and Kevin Castaño. 'A professional footballer has to live with these things. Reprobation is part of football. It is up to the players who have the chance to bounce back to believe in their abilities and work much harder to change that image,' Gallardo emphasized. He also acknowledged that the defeat was a heavy blow but noted that football has its own peculiarities.
