It is official and with a medical part involved. After the information released by ESPN, Boca Juniors did not take long to publish through their social networks what happened to Luis Advíncula. The 32-year-old player, who is on the Peruvian national team’s list to play the playoff for the Qatar 2022 World Cup, suffered an injury.

For more details, the brief note shared by the ‘Xeneizes’ in their accounts. “Luis Advíncula: during the final match, he suffered a muscle injury in his right hamstring”explains the Argentine institution that, from the outset, ruled out the right back from this Thursday’s appointment against Deportivo Cali for date six of the Copa Libertadores.

According to the locals, the Blanquirroja player was injured in the match against Tigre last Saturday at the Mario Alberto Kempes stadium in the city of Córdoba. On that day, the ‘blue and gold’ won 3-0 and conquered the Professional League Cup with the starting score and throughout the contest.

Meanwhile, TyC Sports pointed out that he left before the practice scheduled for this Tuesday. What’s more, the defender of the Bicolor left the Ezeiza property because of the annoyance. Faced with this, the former Rayo Vallecano must undergo medical examinations to find out the severity of the injury and the exact time it will take to return to the courts.

However, the ESPN chain anticipated that Advíncula’s recovery may take up to a maximum of 20 days. If so, the participation of ‘Lucho’ in the playoff to the Qatar 2022 World Cup against Australia or the United Arab Emirates is compromised. Meanwhile, it is unlikely that the defender will take the field against New Zealand in the friendly on Sunday June 5 in Barcelona.

The replacements for Advíncula?

From Argentina they report that between Nicolás Figal and Marcelo Weigandt the Peruvian’s substitute should come out for the clash against Deportivo Cali. On Thursday 26, the team led by Sebastián Battaglia will fight to qualify for the round of 16 of the Copa Libertadores, so the absence of the scoreboard means a hard blow.

Meanwhile, Advíncula was absent this year from a match with the Peruvian team for the Qualifiers. Due to suspension, the winger did not appear against Colombia in Barranquilla. In this context, Gareca arranged for Aldo Corzo to take that place on the court. The footballer from Universitario de Deportes is on the recent list presented by the ‘Tigre’.
