[Scenario Analysis]
For Boca youth, the main competitor to qualify in the group is Benfica from Portugal. In recent years, the situation of Boca youth has not been particularly optimistic. The team lost to independent competition in the quarter-finals of the Arab League Spring League and stopped in the quarter-finals.
Alon, who took office in April this year, coached a Boca youth for the first time, has not yet shown excellent results to prove himself. It is worth noting that shortly after the Club World Cup, Boca Youth will usher in the first game of the Argentina Autumn League. Under the intensive schedule, the players’ physical fitness will be a huge challenge facing the team.
【Star Player】
The captain of the Boca Youth is the 38-year-old Uruguayan magic striker Cavani. After joining from Valencia in July 2023, Cavani has never been old and plays an important role in the team’s offensive end. He can not only score goals and assist the team, but also the spiritual leader of the players. Coming to the Club World Cup, Cavani will meet with his former partner Di Maria in Paris Grande when he is fighting with Benfica. The two people who are in their twilight years of their career will have many interesting stories to meet again.
Herrera, who also played for Manchester United and Paris Saint-Germain, is now in the Boca youth team. Herrera transferred to Boca Youth in January this year. In this season’s AFC Spring League, he played 6 times for the team and did not play much time. However, Herrera’s rich experience in the Club World Cup will be a valuable asset for the team.
In addition, the Boca Youth also has former Manchester United defender Roho. After shining the World Cup in 2014, Rojo transferred to Manchester United for 20 million euros and won the UEFA Cup championship with the team. After joining Boca Youth in 2021, Rojo has performed well, but he has had some conflicts with the team recently. There is suspense whether he can bring outstanding performance in the Club World Cup.
