He is the best technician in the history of River. It is said by fans and partners "millionaires" and even by many journalists (partial and impartial). He was baptized Napoleon as Emperor and French soldier. For its similarity and, also, for the gift of strategy . He surpbades professors like Renato Cesarini, José Maria Minella, Angel Labruna or Ramón Díaz himself. But, like all technicians, he has whims and, like all humans, he likes to be deified. And he well deserved the giant poster with the initials of his first name and name appearing in the Belgrano Alta, during the first leg of the semi-finals of the Copa Libertadores.
Marcelo Gallardo is super intelligent. For this reason, one does not understand that he wastes his enormous capacity for work and does not correct the mistakes that come with the ball games stopped, for and against. He suffered all this year . And it still happened on the night of Tuesday, during the painful defeat – the first of 2018 at Monumental – suffered with Gremio. First point: these details are won by details and Renato Portaluppi won the tactical duel that hit River, where it hurts the most. The game of air. Second bullet point: "We are going to be overwhelming," said Gallardo in the preview. This was not filled. A few shots from outside of Palacios and a Maidana head, at the very top, certify it.
River lost with Gremio for this huge pain that causes his Achilles heel: air shipments to the first pursuit . That's what happened with Nicolás Blandi, when San Lorenzo defeated the late Armani in the New Gasometer. Still in Santa Fe against Colón, although the protagonists are different (Lollo and Lux, maximum officials). In Argentina Cup (Martinich, Villa Dálmine), in Superliga (Erpen, San Martin of San Juan) or in friendly match (Komar, Talleres de Córdoba). And it happened to the Brazilian Michel, who nodded in the small area behind Borre, beating halfway Palacios and Armani (he hesitated and lost). A goal almost identical to that of Miranda in Chiquito Romero in Argentina-Brazil played in Saudi Arabia a few days ago.
A detail that can not go unnoticed. River is not placed in front of the executors of corner kick with leg changed to footballer, unlike Gremio who put a defender at a distance (generally, according to sectors, the lateral Leo Gomes or Bruno Cortez) of 9 , 15 meters. To stand there embarrbadment and does not allow to see clearly the receiver which is in the zone.

Second detail: River's 10 men are located in their area when a corner separates them. But they do it badly. They are wrong to dial the number. In the corner executed by Alisson on the left, left-handed, Ponzio, Borré, Montiel (with Kannemann), Palacios (lost Michel's mark), Casco (with Jael), Pratto (curved), Pinola ( with Cícero) And further, Maidana (with Géromel). Armani has moved back and forth and has been stuck in the line. Pity Martinez and Juanfer Quintero were located – as always – at the gate of the zone, waiting for the rejection to avoid the capitalization of the rebound by the Brazilians.
Third detail: The river does not take off advantage of the ball stopped in attack. Except when Quintero strikes him directly. But it does not have repeated pieces, such as the basic one that combs first and the one that is transformed by the back. And that Russia 2018 was the World Cup with the most goals in the history of the ball the tournament with the most goals in this way (66) and the highest percentage (43 , 1%).
