Nacional from Uruguay and Argentina’s River Plate will face off in a friendly for the Copa Desafio this Saturday, January 11, 2020, at 3:00 PM Pacific. This match to be played at Campus de Maldonado in Uruguay was organized to promote fair play and raise awareness of culture, inclusion, and education within the sport.
While this match is a friendly, it will still allow River Plate to prepare for the start of the second half of the Superliga Argentina. Currently sitting in 5th place with 27 points, the ‘millonarios’ will face Independiente on January 19 for a pending match.
Against Nacional, Marcelo Gallardo may utilize a side close to his starting lineup, thus allowing his squad to stay in form. If River Plate wins their January 19 game, they will tie for 1st place with 30 points along Argentinos Juniors.
Nacional recently won the championship in their league, and this game will also allow them to gain form ahead of their league start.
