Marcos Acuña's post
The left-back champion of the 2022 World Cup with the Argentina national team, who missed the match against the Canalla due to a muscle injury, posted the Millonario's crest and an encouraging phrase: "With faith and always positive, we'll get out of this. I fully trust this group. United until the end".
River Plate's negative streak
With five consecutive losses, River's fans didn't forgive anyone. The team arrived uncertainly to the Apertura final and lost 3-2 to Belgrano. Since then, despite the World Cup break and the arrival of a renowned reinforcement, it failed to regain its footing: it was eliminated by Aldosivi in the Copa Argentina's round of 16 and failed to score points or goals in the first three matches of the Apertura, against Barracas Central, Gimnasia, and Rosario Central.
The fans' reaction
In this scenario, the fans' anger grew with the minutes against the Canalla. The "move, River, move" after Nicolás Otamendi's goal turned into "players, the c... of their mother" and included insults against the board of directors.
