In the anteroom to the Argentine ‘superclassic’ that will be this Sunday (4:00 pm) in La Bombonera, River Plate and Boca Juniors were measured in a duel of the reserve, in which the millionaire cast won, once more, with the brilliant performance of the Colombian Flabián Londoño. He continues to do merits for an eventual call-up from Marcelo Gallardo to the first team. It is necessary to remember that to the Antiochian forward they have approached it in several opportunities.
“Nothing like winning a Superclásico. With a goal from Londoño Bedoya, he defeated Boca 1-0 and was left with the Superclásico of the Reserve Division,” the millionaire team announced on Friday about the victory against xeneize, which is will be measured this Sunday by the Argentine Superliga.
But who is Flabián Londoño? The millionaire jewel in the reserve is a Colombian and is 20 years old. He was born in Ebéjico (Antioquia) and is the cousin of former footballer Gerardo Bedoya, a player who played for Racing, Colón and Boca Juniors. Today his nephew is mad at River fans, who even compare him to Falcao Garcia for his conditions as a “killer.”
Londoño has played six games and scored three goals in the reserve championship (consecutively), giving victory to his team. In fact, coach Gallardo has been following in his footsteps. The Antiochian striker “lobbies” the professional team, in which he has had the opportunity to train on a couple of occasions.
It is necessary to emphasize that besides Flabián, River also counts in the reserve with the central defender Thomás Gutiérrez, that left to the Argentine equipment after being captain with the youthful equipment of Independent Medellín. He has also been part of the Colombia national team.
Thomas Gutiérrez played with DIM until 2018.
